Driver for Agilent 34401A has a bug

‎05-16-2006 06:51 PM

The driver for Agilent 34401A has a bug. It's the vi to configure the integration time. This vi takes a parameter to set the time with one of five possible DBL values, but in the vi there is a formation string like ".. %g". The konsequense is that the design does not in run in many european countrys, because the vi will send a komma to the instrument in the FP-integer. A change to ".. %.;%g" should be the solution.

The Agilent 34401 driver was updated shortly after the LabVIEW 8.0 release and includes this fix.  You can see the other updates we made in version 5.0.1 in the instrument driver readme.  The latest driver versions all always available on the Instrument Driver Network (ni.com/idnet).
 
We certainly appreciate the feedback.
