I installed a R&S CMD60 driver in my PC, and i can use its vi by select add vi, but i am wondering how can i select this vi in control pane directly? Just like we can select DAQ, Motion...... VI. That will decrease little workload to search the path where the driver is.

Hi Levin
{by control pane I am assuming you mean functions palette)
If the drivers did not come with a palette file you make your own.
I recommended sticking the driver folder under the LabVIEW hierarchy e.g. <user.lib> (or where ever) and create a palette menu for them by selecting Tools>>Advanced>>Edit Palette Set from the LabVIEW menu.
Alternatively you could use VIPM.
Cheers
