LabView Keithley

Dear NI Community

I am trying to control my Keithley 2401 using LabView programme. I want to give a current of 1E-6 (similarly a voltage) to Keithley from LabView itself. It's showing Header Error. I dont know where I have made the mistake.  I will be grateful if you all could help me in this regard. I have attached the code below.

I am using GPIB driver.

Most forum members do not have the latest version of LabVIEW. Please save your VI in the previous version, preferably 2019.

 

Are you using Keithley 2400 SourceMeter - Instrument Driver?

Yes I am using that driver.

 

Regarding LabView, I am using the free community edition.

It doesn't matter what LabVIEW edition you are using. You need to Save for a Previous Version for us to open your VI.

Most of us won't have the Driver either. And, some of us post with a phone.

Can you inline the image as a snippet?  From the Block Diagram menu click Edit>Select All (ctrl+A) then Edit>Create Snippet from selection.

He's not actually using the Keithley driver.  Just a simple GPIB write and read.  Works fine for me.

 

OP, what error are you getting? 

 

BTW, you should ALWAYS turn an SMU output OFF before you end your program.  The 2401 can't hurt you too bad, but its big brothers sure can.  Safety first!

 I added an Error Out and cleaned it up for the snippet.

These are the results from run where nothing is connected to my 2401.
