NI MAX doesn't find/see a network device

Solved!
Go to solution

Good day everybody. I try to detect a LAN instrument from NI MAX, but an error comes instead, saying the device is not present in the system ( please see first.png). That's kind of weird, because I can ping the device, which is actually a Tabor ww1072 AWG... Could anyone possibly help me with the problem?

I use NI VISA 14.0

 

But e.g. I have a LeCroy scope connected to a hub, just like the Tabor ww1072 and I can both ping it and add as LAN instrument from NI MAX. 

Thank you all for help in advance!

A LeCroy scope is obviously not the same thing. In order to be detected as INSTR, the instrument must be compliant with either LXI or VXI-11. Does the vendor say it is? If not, use the RAW mode.

Thank you very much, the Raw mode worked!
