Agilent B2912A SMU configure source.vi error

[AEB2000]

Hi,

I am trying to control a Agilent b2912A SMU via labview.

When trying to run the example programmes that come with the agilent b2900 drivers (specifically: Agilent B2900 Series Output List Sweep Volts.vi), I recieve a -1074000000 error from the configure source.vi block. I dont understand why I am getting this error from an example program. I have connected via gpib that I know works.

Hi AEB,

did you select the correct VISA resource?

Hi, The Visa location is all correct, the error is arising from the configure source.vi, I looked at its block diagram and the error is coming from error query.vi.

Hi AEB,

I don't have your specific device driver installed, but checked the Agilent driver coming with LabVIEW by default: in the ErrorQuery function that error is set if any other error occurs before.

So the question is: which error occurs before "-1074000000" is set as error?

Hi there,

I believe it is from a 1073807339 error from timeout. Does this mean there is a problem with GPIB connection.

What can I do to omit this error?

Thanks again for your help
