Need help on ITC503

I am trying to connect ITC503 �Intelligent???� controller.
It is expecting an End-of-String (EOS) character, and the carriage-return is the EOS character. I don�t have any manual, but I am pretty sure that I have set correct correctly set the EOS character to carriage return in the GPIB ibdev function, or at list I made a lot of efforts to initialise correctly the GPIB interface. Any way I cannot connect at all to device, and when I use the LabView drivers Its works without problems. But I need to use LabWindows instead the LV. I need a code on ibdev function to correctly initialse the GPIB interface. It seems that the ITC503 is not a standard GPIB device. I am seriously in doubt whether the ITC should really called, and not only TC! L
Please
Help!
Best Regards

Nikolai

Hello Nikolai,
See Introduction to the Interactive Control (IBIC)  for the basic communication commands, then for more detail(including the answer to your question), see NI-488.2 Function Reference Manual for Windows
(Look up ibdev and ibeos.)

Hi Ray,
Thanks!
I should really learn to read before complain :-)!
The problem was that I set correctly the EOS character but newer think about that I have to added at the end of every command.

Best Regards,

Nikolai
