syncronous GPIB ?

Hi all,

I'm really stuck. I'm trying to control a Hamamatsu OOS-01 scope via LV
(5.1) and GPIB (as previous reqest for drivers proved unfruitful).

Anyway, It's a really old device and comms via the Windows Interactive
Control only work with asyncronous UNticked (ie. syncronous comms).

How can I force syncronous comms in my LabView driver (for this
instrument only)? I can't find any option on the VISA property node...

Thanks,

Peter R.H.

Hi,

try entering the line

syncVisa=True

in your labview.ini file. Worked for me at least. 🙂

Best Regards,
Tobias Hermann

I suppose I'll have to give it a try, I only wanted to do sync. with this
inst. as all the others work a-sync. and I belive a-sync. is a better
protocol....

Thanks,

Peter
