Error in setting up VISA resource for Keithley 2460

I have a system with two Keithley 2460's that I want to control with LabVIEW. One is set up and works fine (done long time ago - the person who did it is gone), but I am having trouble communicating with the other device.

I can ping its IP address and access its web page no problem, but when I try to create the VISA TCP/IP resource in NI MAX using the VISA resource string from its own web page, I get an error (see screenshot).

The two devices should be identical, so I am not sure why one works and the other doesn't.

Any ideas for something obvious I am missing or ways to solve the problem would be greatly appreciated.

 

Thanks.

Hello,

Thank you for your help. In the end, it still doesn't work using the VXI-11 protocol but I managed to communicate to the device through the raw socket connection, so after a bit of rewriting of the LabVIEW code, it seems to function like that.

Cheers.
