    BenchVue for Keysight / Agilent / HP. Picotech scopes have their own control SW as does Prism Sound. CSV data exports to excel and then on to PSI Plot for final visualization. Screen captures are also often used. It's a bit of a hodge-podge.

    Yeah I got a bunch of scripts to automate power supplies and multimeters, but they all rely on NI-VISA, which has a habit of crashing during long runs so I was searching for alternatives. I believe Keysight has their own flavor of VISA which gets used in Benchvue, may have to try that sometime.

    I'm using the free versions of Benchvue which are limited to 1 hr per data logging exercise. If I'm going to spend real money I will likely go with National Instruments Lab View.

    LabVIEW has quite a few other issues, ignoring license requirements (big ask), but I would still be hamstrung with long runs for the same NI-VISA limitations (we see it on fully loaded 34970 chassis).

    What kind of issues are you having on long runs with Labview?
