HP 8753ES 'block input error' when recalling state

[Shannon]

I use HP8753 save/recall state.vi to save and recall state with the HP
8753ES network analyzer. I try to recall state back into the analyzer.
Saving is fine, but when recalling state, I get 'Block Input Error'. I
tried changing '1' to '0' at the Exclusive-OR in Write Text to
Screen.vi in HP 8753 save/recall state as Sastry recommended on
Lilach's question, but it doesn't work. I even take the write text to
screen.vi off and modify the vi to run without it, but it still
doesn't work. Can you advice me how to recall state properly? Thanks

Hi,

a post from Paris, with cloudy weather 😞

learn string of HP8753ES is 7656 bytes long. So 5000 bytes used to read
the VISA ressource are not enough and must be increased to 8000. After
that, HP8753 Save/Recall State.vi works fine here. I hope it will be the
same for you...

Hi,

This post is really old, but it also saved my day. The workaround proposed by Groupe ESIEE (Daniel) totally works. Good job guys! I thought I would leave a line to let the people of the future know about this. You're welcome, people of the future!

Ran into this issue last year, again this year because I forgot what I did last year, i guess no one has resubmitted or entered the fix for the driver
