E2050A with LabVIEW 6

[rapid]

I try to work with an E2050A under LabVIEW 6.02. The following ways I testet without success:
- Installing the Device in MAX (during the installation the device present on MAX, after pressing F5 E2050A is not longer present. But Max tells "connecting successful".
- Work with the sicl32.dll in LabVIEW. I can Open, Close, Read and Write about GPIB but when I close my LabVIEW it ctrash's.
- I built a DLL from a CVI programm that calls the sicl32.dll (without problems) and call these DLL in LabVIEW ==> same Problem as before.
Who is able to help me or can show an other way to fix this problem?

Hello,

i found some Knowledgebase entries concerning
Agilent (HP) GPIB problems.
Maybe here you find some useful hints:
HP-VISA Conflicts with NI-DAQ

How Can I Use an HPIB Board with LabVIEW or CVI?

There is also another thread about the E2050A:
Agilent E2050A lan-GPIB gateway and Labview 6

Many Thank, but this is only a little part of the solution. I have updated my LabVIEW to 6.1 and the SICL driver. Now I can work with NI VISA. The E2050 is still not present in MAX but it works. The Ressourcename is:
"TCPIP::EMC-015::hpib11,8::INSTR".
EMC-015 is the hostname of the E2050A, hpib11 is the hpibname of E2050A and 8 is the GPIB adress of the connected device.
