Installation

Instruments.jl is available from the Julia package repository and can be installed with:

Pkg.add("Instruments")

NI-VISA

Instruments.jl uses a C VISA library under the hood. The only one it has been tested with is the National Instruments implementation NI-VISA. Fortunately, this is available for all platforms.

• Windows: NI-VISA 14.0
• Linux (32 bit only [1] ): NI-VISA 14.0
• Mac OS X: NI-VISA 14.0

Footnotes

[1]	There is some hope this annoying restriction will go away shortly as NI have a pre-release version with 64 bit support (forum post).
