Labview 17

[SebastianMienie]

Hi I am trying to connect a TDK Lambda GEN150-10 power supply to my pc via LAN cable so I can control it through a Lab view program I have. I seem to be getting a -1074001908 error in the initialize sub VI and don't know how I can solve it...any suggestions?

Hi all

Using a Ethernet cable I have connected my TDK Lambda power unit (model GEN 150-10) to my pc. I have Lab view 2017 and would like to control the power supply unit through lab view. I can't seem to get in working and keep getting the -1074001908 error. Please help.

Here is a snap shot of my program thus far.

Hi Sebastian,

Maybe because you are trying to connect to the device using a COM port???

Btw. why did you choose "LabVIEW 17" as thread title???

Gerd has pointed out your problem. Here is some assigned reading for you 🙂

In addition to the obvious problem that has already been pointed out, you need to start with a few simple LabVIEW tutorials and learn about the principles of dataflow. In the code you show, you branch the device wire so the "close" and "initialize" all execute in parallel and the device will be closed before you can even read from it. Execution order is solely determined by data dependencies, not by horizontal location on the diagram or some other imaginary features.

This code is fundamentally flawed!
