3. Downloading and Installing the Keysight IO Libraries Suite

Installation Steps: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7

The Keysight IO Libraries are required only for GPIB connectivity.

  1. Download the Keysight IO Libraries Suite 18.0 or later, free of charge, from the Keysight website at: http://www.keysight.com/find/iolib. After the IO Libraries Suite has been successfully installed, you will see the IO Control (IO icon) in the Windows notification area on your PC screen.

  2. Click Connection Expert from the IO icon, if it does not run automatically. This utility automatically detects most interfaces and instruments, and assigns names and other default configuration settings. (You can edit these default settings if necessary.) Refer to the Keysight IO Libraries Suite documentation, for more information.
