temptronic

[BENIO]

Guys,
Can somebody helping me solving he issue I have in my program to control the temptronic TP04310a?I am not sure about the way I have used the event structure components, I tried to communicate with the device but I could't see any error but in the same time the device doesn't starting up from the program int LB.
Last time I have attached the file which contained the program but the block diagram was not accessible, now must be ok.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Hi Benio,

There is nothing wrong with the Event structure. Well, except that for the timeout event you need to set a time because otherwise the event never fires.

I've tried your structure and replaced your instrument driver VIs with other VIs for another GPIB instrument but also with an Initialize function, Selftest,... . I even kept the Write VISA string in the quit case. Everything works fine with my instrument. I checked our Instrument driver website but this doesn't seem to be one of our drivers?? I don't know where you got it from but I would contact that provider. I have found a discussion forum link where a customer has posted another driver onto the web maybe this one is better but ofcourse we cannot support that. Please check the link below:

You should test your program without the event structure first. Just link the VIs together and probably that will not work since I don't think that the Event structure is an issue here.
