Keysight Technologies VISA.NET
Keysight Technologies VISA.NET provides a programming interface designed specifically for .NET CLS-compliant languages such as C# and VB.NET.
VISA.NET is based on VISA (Virtual Instrument Software Architecture), an API for industry-standard I/O. It can be used to develop I/O applications and instrument drivers that are interoperable with other VISA.NET implementations and comply with IVI Foundation standards. The Interchangeable Virtual Instruments (IVI) Foundation created the VISA.NET standards in 2014 to provide a VISA API that uses familiar .NET features and idioms.
