Does the Keithley 2400 need to be isolated? Are the computer/GPIB controller and the Keithley on separate ground planes? Also, I believe that only one side of the GPIB-120A is isolated.

I am trying to do something like this as well and am having trouble. I have installed the 488B driver before the hardware, like the instruction manual suggested. I also Have tried the driver with NI capability and with Keithley compatibility. I am using the Keithley GPIB so it is currently on the keithley compatibility install. The configuration utility picks it up but when i try and use a labview application ( the example ones such as Keithley 24XX Read Single.vi ect ... ) I get error messages. Mostly about VISA... my colleague says that yesterday it worked with an NI GPIB...
I am running Windows 7
Labview 2015
I checked for updated drivers this morning.
I am totally new to any of these tools, so any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
Emily
