The following tables list the members exposed by VisaSession.
Public Properties
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
 | EventQueueCapacity | The maximum number of events that can be queued at any time on this session. The default is 50. |
| ExportEnabled | Together with the Keysight ResourceManager.FindExportedResourcesOnly property, determines whether the resource associated with this session instance is reported by the Keysight Find and Parse methods. |
| HardwareInterfaceName | A human-readable description of the hardware interface associated with this session. |
| HardwareInterfaceNumber | The board number of the hardware interface associated with this session. |
| HardwareInterfaceType | The type (GPIB, ASRL, etc.) of the hardware interface associated with this session. |
| InternalHandle | The VISA C handle to the underlying VISA C session. |
| ResourceClass | The resource class of the currently open resource. Possible values are INSTR, INTFC, MEMMAC, SOCKET, and BACKPLANE. |
| ResourceImplementationVersion | The version of this Keysight VISA.NET implementation. |
| ResourceLockState | The state of the resource-wide lock on the currently open resource. |
| ResourceManager | A private instance of the ResourceManager created when this session was instantiated, and available until this session is disposed. |
| ResourceManufacturerId | The VXI manufacturer ID of the software vendor of this VISA.NET implementation - '4095'. |
| ResourceManufacturerName | The name of the software vendor that corresponds to the ResourceManufacturerId property - 'Keysight Technologies, Inc.'. |
| ResourceName | The VISA resource name of the currently open resource. This name is the canonical version of the resource name and therefore may vary from the resourceName parameter used to instantiate the session. |
| ResourceSpecificationVersion | The version of the VISA.NET specification that describes the functionality provided by this session class. |
| SessionType | The type of the current session. |
| SynchronizeCallbacks | Specifies whether callbacks must be performed in a specific synchronization context. If false, the implementation is allowed to execute callbacks in any context. The default value is true. This property applies to this session only (local scope). |
| TimeoutMilliseconds | The I/O timeout in milliseconds for I/O communication on this resource session. |
| WaitForLockRelease | Indicates whether methods and properties from this session instance will wait for a timeout period for a resource lock to be released (true) or not (false). |
Public Methods
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
 | DisableEvent | Disables a calling program's ability to receive events of the type specified by the eventType argument using a VisaSession.WaitOnEvent method (any overload). |
| DiscardEvents | Discards events of the type specified by the eventType argument from the queue for that event type. |
| Dispose | Overloaded. Performs tasks associated with freeing, releasing, or resetting unmanaged VISA resources used by this session. |
| EnableEvent | Enables a calling program's ability to receive events of the type specified by the eventType argument using a WaitOnEvent method. |
| LockResource | Overloaded. Acquires a lock on the resource for this session. |
| UnlockResource | Unlocks the resource. |
| WaitOnEvent | Overloaded. Waits for an occurrence of the specified event for this session. In particular, WaitOnEvent suspends execution of the thread on which it is called and waits for the specified event indefinitely. |
