Hello
we want to keep track of how often a relay switches on the scanner card.

We us the Keithley.Ke37XX.Interop library download from the keithley website and would like to know if it is possible to keep track of those switching numbers, and if yes , then we would like to know which function from the driver to use

thanks in advance

The IVI driver did not define a means to query that information from the card.
The IVI driver does however have WriteString and ReadString as part of the DirectIO interface. 
  1. //ask for closure counts from a channel list 
  2. driver.System.DirectIO.WriteString("print(channel.getcount(\"1001,1911\"))");
  3.                 
  4. resultsListBox.Items.Add(driver.System.DirectIO.ReadString());
