how do you take multiple readings from dmm using labview

[p1]

I am able to communicate with my instrument  keithley 2701 dmm  using labview driver .but how do you aquire multiple readings from the dmm.I have attached screenshot of my vi with this  message,do i have to use loops or it can be done without it

does sending "read ?" scpi  command  after " trig coun n" takes n reading or else what we have to give as scpi command to take multiple reading ,i have made a vi which send these commands to the dmm along with all the others required initialise.vi ,configure measurement.vi etc ,the vi runs without error but returns only one reading ,is it because readings of one scan overwrites the reading of previous or i have to use some other vi

I would suggest you look in the driver at the example called Continuous Multi Read. That uses a loop. If you want to take multiple readings from the same channel, you might also be able to specify the same channel multiple times in the channel list. I don't have the manual for the instrument but I would also recomend that you read that to see if there are alternate methods.

p.s. Even though your instrument is sort of a dmm, it's not an NI-DMM which is what this board is for. In the future, you should probably post to the Instrument Control forum.

found the solution by looking into block diagram of examples, i need to give a scpi command sample:coun n.
