It looks like VEE is capable of working with other brand instruments.
Can BenchVue?
Can it control things like an oven?
I've been looking for this and must not be using the right search terms.
Thanks,
Steve

Hi Steve,
Yes, BenchVue can control other instruments. If they speak SCPI or any ASCII language, the SCPI block can be used in Test Flow. If a driver exists, you can use Command Expert to drive it, and call Command Expert from Test Flow. (CE is not enabled for use in Test Flow until you buy at least one app.) You don't get the fancy GUI, but you can talk to the instrument and retrieve data. We are working on a project with a distributor right now to show how to use BenchVue to control a temperature chamber, so watch our YouTube channel for a video in a couple of months. There are some cool changes coming out in Test Flow in the upcoming release to make it even easier to use, so be sure to get Update 2 when it is released.
Thanks, that's what I was after.
