GPIB driver errors

[alaayesh]

Hello all,

I have an oscilloscope and a function generator and am trying to control these using GPIB PCI, I downloaded two drivers for the instruments I have, it seems that I was finally able to make these driver works by the help of ni engineers but now am facing errors in the execution the function generator works fine in the initialization and reset but when I want to configure its main I have an error of "out of range frequency"

and for the oscilloscope I have an external error saying "interpreting instrument response error"

I don't know the reason for those two problems and I didn't find any thing on the internet.

Please help this is very urgent

thanks

out of range frequency simply means you ask more (or less) from the instrument than that it is able to give you.

What programming environment are you using?

The oscilloscope error I've never seen.

Hello Mr.Geven,

actually the value am using is within the range provided by the driver the driver uses the range

5e-3 to 50e+3 (5mHz to 50KHz) so am within the range

and the programming environment that am using is Visual Studio (VB.net) + Measurement studio 

thanks.

It is not important what the driver supports but what the function generator supports

Which model and vendor of the function generator are you using?

Hello,

am using TG1304, FROM TTI

THANKS

[Albert.Geven]

I looked into the manual, but found no clue why your function does not work.

In LabVIEW I know how to test but vb is too difficult for me.

Hello,

thanks for the reply.

can you test the function (tg1304.config_main) because this function is the one that gives me an error??

thanks again.

I even don't have the function generator.

Hello all,

The solution for TG1304 instrument driver is that you have to adjust the .fp file of it using labwindows/CVI, all you have to do is to copy the instrument id parameter from the other function such as close and place it in the panel for config_main and config_aux and then every thing is going to work correctly.

thanks for all your help.I hope this will help any one having the same problem.

but am still having a problem with the oscilloscope (mxox802x instrument driver) and it still gives me an "interpreting instrument response" error so can anybody help me with this kind of error am still unable to solve this error.

please help .

Hello,

What function are you using when you get this error? Also could you post a screenshot of the error you are getting?
