MAX crashes after scanning for a Tektronix scope via GPIB.

MAX crashes after scanning for a Tektronix TDS3054B scope connected via GPIB. No problem with other GBIP instrument tested (Wavetek Model 81 signal generator). Also, no problem using ibic or LabView 7.1 to talk to scope. Dell 360, Windows XP Pro, NI PCI-GPIB.

JerryHarris,

What version of NI-488.2 are you using? Also can you successfully send a *IDN? to your instrument?

Craig,

Version 2.3, and, yes, I could send a *IDN? to the scope.

Jerry,

Could you post an NI-SPY capture (logged to a file)? That might help us see where the crash is occurring. Thanks!
