This is a new (just released as of Spring 2014) software package from Agilent.  It allows you to compile front-panel views of all of your testing instruments on one screen.  Unfortunately, it has one major limitation and that is lack of support for the new B2902A Precision Source Meters that we purchased.  It does however work with the 33220A Function Generators and the E3631A Power Supplies.  A complete list of supported equipment can be found at this link:

Please note that this is only the first version, so support for other equipment may follow in the coming months / years.  To give you some idea of how this works, take a look at the screenshot below.  This is a setup with two power supplies and a function generator.  Notice how you can easily control all of the output settings without navigating through many submenus.  Control of power supply limits, voltage outputs, and data logging is also accomplished with simple GUI controls.
