Abstract :
Experimental setups, which differ widely in nature, are all controlled by one and the same Graphical User Interface (GUI). The setups have a common hardware structure: a host computer connects via Ethernet to a front-end, and this front-end services the measurement equipment. To establish the mentioned setup independence all setup specific information is stored in the front-end. The GUI will extract this information and use it to construct a front panel. LabVIEW is used for programming the GUI
