Has anybody used ke24xx.dll via RS232? I get an VISA timeout error.

Hi
I am developing a Labview program to acquire data from a Keithley instrument (model 2410) using the ke24xx.dll that works fine in GPIB. This dll works with RS232 communication according to the description of the vi. However I get always the same error  (BFFF0015 Time out).
The settings of the instruments are the same that PC COM1 settings and the communication cable has been made according to the connections specified in the manual.
 
I have been doing tests changing the termination character on the instrument, but it doesn´t work. I have been trying to modify the Property nodes of the Visa Instrument to enable and select the termination character according to the instructions of the following address
 
I also have modified the Time out property node to 6s, but it doesn´t work.
 
Has anybody got the same problem? How can I work it out ?
Thanks in advance

Make sure 24xx is set for: 9600 baud, 8 data, 1 stop bit and Xon/Xoff enabled. Also make sure terminator char is linefeed only. It should work
