Hi Peter, You should be able to use the IO assistant from within the Block Diagram in LabVIEW. From the splash screen in LabVIEW select new, and then from the templates choose GPIB>Read and Display. Now in the block diagram you can double click the instrument IO assistant and configure it to query your devices.
