scanning with external DMM with Agilent 34970A using Labview

[tommorgan]

Hi,

I am a relatively inexperienced user of Labview. I have written a VI to

scan several channels on a 34970A using the 34901A multiplexer module
to take voltage readings. I want to use a more accurate DMM than the
internal one however so I have hooked up a Fluke 8840A to the agilent
and I want the scanner to simply switch between the channels while the
fluke actually takes the voltage measurements. How do I modify my
existing VI so that it uses an external DMM? One of the driver VI's is
'configure external instrument' which i assume is the obvious option
but i'm not sure where to insert this to modify the VI.


Thanks


Tom
