Can I build custom instrument class definitions with Nimbus?
Absolutely. This is also one of the more unique and popular features of Nimbus. If the IVI Foundation has not defined an instrument class for a series of devices that are important to your company, then you can reap many of the same interchangeability benefits by defining an instrument class of your own. Nimbus provides a specialized wizard for exactly this purpose. Once the custom instrument class has been defined, then new instrument drivers that implement the class definition can be developed in precisely the same fashion as if the class definition had been supplied by the IVI Foundation.
