GBIP interface

Hai..

 

This is Rajavel from Finland. We have Keithley 236 and GBIP cable and also labview 2012 vrsion software.

 

I first installed Lab view then i installed NI max (ni4882_302) verson. Then i download the Keithly 236 drivers.

After installing NII max i go device and system then i double click GPIB+HS 'GPIB0' and the press scan for the instruments and i got GPIB0::14::INSTR. In that i got the IP address (14) and select Labview 2012 version then i click button go.

It go to the labview program now is shows instrument driver finder configure search in that i select the conected instrument and i will show the code of my connected instrument which i got it NI max.if i go that way means i didnt get results in that .

 

After that i go the installed drivers in that it showed agilent, Keithly 2000, Keithly 24xx and Keithly 27xx after that if i select any one from keithly it shows some simple VI programs but i doestn communicate with my instrument.

 

So can you solve this issues for me..

 

Regards

the Keithley 236 driver is available here

This "Legacy" GPIB instrument predated the IEEE 488 standard.  It does not support *IDN? so MAX will not be able to detect what the model number of the device is and the Driver Finder won't be able to search properly.

 

Consider using a modern instrument.
