keithley 2400 Output did not turn on

 

I am using keithley 2400 as source meter.

I've downloaded labview driver 8.0 and use the vi as following sequence

 

Initialize -> configure output -> output On -> close

 

I set this to a current source, with output current = 0.18A and voltage compliance = 10V and connect to a LED

 

My problem is, the LED will not turn on during the very first time.

I need to manually set the instrument to LOCAL, then hit the output button to ON, then i see the LED is on, and then OFF it,

Since then, i trigger again using my software, then only it is working now.

 

if i power off and on Keithley instrument and try again with my software, it will not work.

Everytime i need to manually set the output ON OFF first.

 

I suspect this is related to some configurations before i turn on the output.

 

I am running out of idea. anyone can help on this?
