NAME

       viOpenDefaultRM - Create and return a handle to the default VISA resource manager

SYNOPSIS

       #include <visa.h>

       ViStatus viOpenDefaultRM(ViSession *resource_manager);

DESCRIPTION

       This  function  creates  a  new  handle referencing the default VISA resource manager, and
       stores it at the address given by the resource_manager parameter. This handle can then  be
       used  to  find  and  open  instruments  or  instrument  buses. This is typically the first
       function invoked by client applications.

       When the handle is no longer needed, it should be closed using the viClose() function.

RETURN VALUE

       On success, VI_SUCCESS is returned, and the new handle is stored at the given address.

       On failure, an error code is returned, and the new handle initialized to VI_NULL.
