Connect Keithley 2701 Ethernet Multimeter with LabView

Hi,
I am using LabView 2023 Q1 and have a Keithley 2701 Ethernet Multimeter. I have already downloaded the drivers for the multimeter available on the NI website. There is also a connection between my PC and the multimeter via cross-over cable. However, there is no possibility to make a measurement. It is not a simple plug and play system.
Does anyone know how I can establish a connection between the multimeter and LabView?
It is also not listed within NI MAX.

 

Any ideas out there?

 

Thanks for your help, greatly appreciated!

It sounds as if you should read section 10 of the user manual for your 2701 equipment.  You might need to ensure that the gateway on the PC matches that of the test equipment.  Also check that the IP addresses for both are not the same.  Once that is done, the equipment should accept SCPI commands/queries.
