Dear community,
I would like to ask some help.
I am try to connect the Keithely 6430 thought RS232 port.
My first step was check connection. I use for that Putty. The command *IDN? return KEITHLEY INSTRUMENTS INC.,MODEL 6430,0924216,C24 Feb 14 2002 11:59:45/A02 /D/
I installed drivers for Keithely 6430 from NI catalog. According the description it is for GPIB connection. So I have started to modify them for RS232 connection. First problem is VISA Read error -1073807339.
I got it in the Initialize block.
I opened block schem, check that error come from VISA Read block .
Next step was check connection by MAX. The Configuration of the device COM port as same as in Windows. In Visa test panel I send command *IDN? and press Read? the result is on screenshort.
Solved! Go to Solution.

I find solution for this problem.
Because drive prepare for GPIB conection, it does not take into account termination charaters.
I added before "write buffer" input a combination of command and "Line Feed Constant" (LF is selected in TERMINATOR). See screenshort.
I think it will help with other VI from this NI driver.
