2. Getting Started with C#
Introduction
This chapter describes the procedures of using the IVI-COM driver of Ikonix
Group by C# programming language. In this exercise, the programmer could
import the driver and complete a short program controlling the device step-by
step.
The C# could use IVI-C driver, either. However, we suggest that an IVI-COM
interop would be easier for you to develop the program.

1 Create a C# project 1.1 Open Visual Studio IDE and create a new C# console
project.
2 Import Libraries 2.1 Right-click on the reference and select Add Reference
in the solution explorer 2.2 Click on the Browse button and go to the path of

2.3 Declare to use the name spaces for the interop assemblies that are
specified to reference in the previous section.
using AssociatedResearch.ARI32XX.Interop;
3 Start programming 3.1 Create an object of the driver and use the initialize
method to build up the connection.
//Initialize var driver = new ARI32XX(); string resourceName = “ASRL9::INSTR”;
string optionString = “DriverSetup=BaudRate=38400”;
driver.Initialize(resourceName, true, false, optionString);
For more detail for the parameters of the Initialize() method, please refer to
the help document, ARI32XX.chm, which is located at “

If you use serial port to connect to device, please follow the above example,
“DriverSetup=BaudRate=38400”, to setup the baud rate. There are other
parameters for the
option of the Initialize() method, please refer to the ARI32XX.chm for more
details.
3.2 Create file and setup test
//Create and edit test file try {
driver.Files.Create(1, “IviTest”); } catch {
int totalFiles = driver.Files.TotalFiles; for (int i = 0; i <= totalFiles;
i++) {
if (driver.Files.QueryFileName(i).Contains(“IviTest”)) {
driver.Files.Delete(i); driver.Files.Create(i, “IviTest”); break; } } }
//Add ground bond test item by AddGNDTest() driver.Steps.AddGNDTest(
ARI32XXTestModeEnum.ARI32XXTestModeAC, //Output Mode 1, //Dwell Time 25,
//Current 8, //Voltage 0, //Resistance High Limitation 0, //Resistance Low
Limitation 0, //Voltage High Limitation 0, //Voltage Low Limitation 0,
//Resistance offset 0, //Voltage Offset
ARI32XXFrequencyEnum.ARI32XXFrequency60Hz //Frequency for AC ouput Mode );
//Add an GND step and then edit parameters
driver.Steps.AddGNDTestWithDefaults(); driver.Parameters.OutputMode =
ARI32XXTestModeEnum.ARI32XXTestModeDC; driver.Parameters.Dwell = 5;
driver.Parameters.Current = 20; driver.Parameters.Voltage = 5;
driver.Parameters.HighLimit = 200; driver.Parameters.LowLimit = 0;
driver.Parameters.HighLimitVoltage = 6; driver.Parameters.LowLimitVoltage = 0;
driver.Parameters.Offset = 10; driver.Parameters.OffsetVoltage = 0.2;
//driver.Parameters.Frequency = ARI32XXFrequencyEnum.ARI32XXFrequency50Hz;
//DC do not support frequency configuration
driver.Files.Save();
For the HYAMP 4, all of the test parameters would be within a file. Therefore,
you need to
create a file first and then setup the parameters. For the previous firmware
version, it might
not support the methods of AddGNDTest(). Therefore, we could add the steps
with default
values using the AddGNDTestWithDeafults and then modify the parameters.

At first, there is a try-catch process to handle creating files with the name
might be existed.
3.3 Load file and start a test
//Output driver.Execution.Execute();
Before running output, you have to select a file to load using
driver.files.Load(). And then invoke driver.Execution.Execute() method to
start a test.
3.4 Measure during test
bool lastOpcStatus = false; while (true) {
Console.WriteLine(driver.Execution.ReadTestDisplayRaw());
driver.System.WriteString(“*OPC?n”); string opcStatus =
driver.System.ReadString(); if (opcStatus.Contains(“1”) && lastOpcStatus)
break; lastOpcStatus = opcStatus.Contains(“1”); Thread.Sleep(100); }
This while loop would run with the condition of state is testing. Using the
methods of Execution.ReadTestDisplayRaw() could let you read the immediate
readings.
3.5 Close the session
driver.Execution.Abort(); driver.Close(); Console.WriteLine(“Done – Press
Enter to Exit”); Console.ReadLine();
Close() would close the I/O session to the instrument.

5. Getting Started with LabVIEW
Introduction
This chapter describes the procedures of using the IVI-COM driver of Ikonix
Group by LabVIEW programming language. In this exercise, the programmer could
learn how to import the driver and complete a short program controlling the
device step-by step.
Even though the programmers could control the device by IVI Driver. For the
LabVIEW programmer, we suggest that using LabVIEW plug & play driver would be
easier for your programming and debugging. The LabVIEW driver from Ikonix
Group are all made up with commands directly, so you could clearly check how
the commands were sent to instruments.

6.1 Create file and setup test
Use the Property Node to get reference of the sub-system of IARI32XX class.
For example, Files is one of the sub class of IARI32XX, and then we could use
the Create method under Files to create a file in the device. For the HYAMP 4,
all of the test parameters would be within a file. Therefore, you need to
create a file first and then select a file to be edited. The methods of
AddGNDTest is unavailable for the previous firmware version. Therefore, we
could add steps with default parameters first and then edit the parameters.
Please be noted that the flow of error data could make sure that the procedure
ran sequentially.

Before running output, you have to select a file to load. And then invoke
Execute method to start a test under Execution class. The Execution class is
one property of the IARI32XX class. This for loop would run with polling the

the immediate readings. ReadTestDiaplyRaw is one method of IARI32XX.Execution.
There is another commands querying states of the device, polling “*OPC?” could
get the running status. Please be noted that the status between step and step
might be OFF for a shot moment. To avoid reading wrong status, we use shift
register comparing the status.
