Reciving error code 0x802c when calling FP_CreateTagIOPoint

[j_chandler]

In my software, I am calling FP_CreateTag_IOPoint and reciving an error code of 0x802c. This error code is not desicribed, and FP_Open works properly. What does this error code mean?

I am running FP driver 2.0 on Win 2000 on CVI 7.1. I have tried to update the drive only to find that doing so makes my code unexecutible to to different expected .obj files.

Hello,

Error 0x802c is in hex format, in decimal it would be Error 32812 which stands for "FieldPoint: The specified tag name was not found."

As the FieldPoint PSE posted in a thread alraedy:

"The error code of 32812 is usually returned in one of two situations. In certain versions of FieldPoint Explorer (2.0.1 or earlier), 32812 could be returned from FP Open if the addressed devices were serial modules and the serial port could not opened (in 2.0.2 and higher, this is changed to 32830 "Unable to Bind to Comm Port". More commonly, the 32812 code is returned from FP Create Tag due to the fact that the item specifed by the string inputs (Comm Resource, Device Name and Item Name) do not match the names in the IAK file. The strings must be exact matches and are both case and space sensitive."

Hope this helps,

Found it. I was calling out the name of the FP-1600 itself and not the name of the the entire bank of FP units. Thanks.
