Drivers
Common library for Kikusui application software
This is a common library required to use our application software. If the version bundled with your product is outdated, please download it from here.
- VISA absorbs the differences among communication interfaces such as GPIB/RS232C/LAN, making programming easier.
- When creating a program that communicates with our products via USB connection, VISA is required as a USB communication driver. (VISA from other manufacturers can also be used in the same way)
IVI Drivers
This is a dedicated driver for each model, and must be imported to be used with LabVIEW.
- Sample vi is provided for some models. (You can check them after importing).
- The Import Wizard for LabVIEW can be downloaded from the link below. https://www.ni.com/gate/gb/GB_INFOLVINSTDRIVER/US

Application & Sample Code
Sample projects with code for basic operations such as sending commands, getting query messages, and resource names (addresses to which the instrument is connected) are available for C#/VB.net, ExcelVBA, C++/MFC, LabVIEW, and Python.
For PLCs and general-purpose microcomputers
This document is necessary when you create a program to control our products from a PLC (sequencer) or general-purpose microcomputer. The following products can be controlled.
- Products with RS232C
- Products equipped with LAN that support SCPI RAW or SCPI TELNET protocols (can be found in the specifications section of the user’s manual)
Reference Information
- No VISA library, IVI driver, etc. is required for control.
- The RS232C communication protocol is nonprocedural communication. The flow control setting, stop bit, and baud rate vary depending on the model, so please check the communication interface manual for each model.
- The port number for LAN communication is 5025.
*Sample programs are currently in preparation.
Command Reference (Communication Specifications)
For details on commands and Communication protocols, please refer to the “Communication Interface Manual” for each model. For some products, the details are described in the ” User ‘s Manual”. Models with “SCPI RAW” or “SCPI TELNET” in the specifications column can be controlled from PLCs and other devices via LAN.
Programming Guidebooks
The IVI Instrument Driver Guidebook and the KI-VISA Library Guidebook provide rudimentary programming procedures and procedures for creating instrument control programs, respectively.
