6033

Hi,

I'm reposting this question again into this board. I've wrongly posted it before in the LabView board. Sorry.

I'm using the agilent 603x IVI driver (agn603x) and there's an error at the IVIDCPwr Initialize vi. I'm using NI USB GPIB-HS to connect to the power supply. I made the following observations,

1. Created a new VI and use VISA instead of IVIDCPwr. Verified there's no error to communicate with the 6033A. So hardware connection should be okay.

2. Changed MAX configuration to use agilent N6700 power supply (n6700) and connecting the N6700 power supply instead. Verified there's no error using the same VI. So the VI should be okay.

I'm suspecting the IVI driver but don't know how to find the root cause or solve this.
Attached is the log file captured by NI-Spy.

Thanks

Regards,
husni h

I try to avoid IVI whenever possible but you might want to try a couple of things. First, try changing the parameters you are passing to it. For example, try changing the reset and id query to false. Second, try the initialize with options. This will pass the option string (simulate, range check, etc.). Last, try the instrument specific driver instead of the class driver.

Not enough information to reproduce the bug.
Please initialize the instrument with physical resource name rather than logical name, and capture all the behaviors with NI SPY.
Any issue, please feel free to contact me through email: zhjiang@ni.com. Thanks

What is the error you are getting in the Initialize?
