Hi cristina.lopez,

 

this happens when the reference to the instument has not been properly closed.

 

When this error occurs, select Run Clean UP instead of Abort to make TestStand close the opened references properly.

Did you highlight the Close DMM step in the Cleanup and then run Selected Step. Don’t run the whole sequence.

Do you have a Soft Front Panel for the device open? Or do you have a test panel in MAX open to the instrument?

 

If you aborted your TestStand sequence with an open session, it is possible that the resource was leaked. Try restarting LabVIEW and TestStand.

 

If none of that works, try rebooting the computer. The resource is clearly tied up somewhere, but a reboot is quickest way to recover.

 

If it does not work after a reboot, then the system is in a really bad state, and you should try working with the device in MAX to verify it functions normally.
