VISA connection Labview-Tektronics 3000 scope via ethernet

Hello,

 

I want to connect a Tektronics 3052B scope to Labview 2011 using a ethernet connection. Unfortunately, it does not work. Perhaps someone here can help me.

 

Step1: Connect scope and computer via an ethernet (crossover) cable. I use a fixed IP adress. I'm able to ping the scope and view it in the internet explorer. The connection is thus working.

 

Step2: Use NI Measurement and Automation Explorer to connect the Instrument. I followed this description http://www.tek.com/support/faqs/how-do-i-connect-my-oscilloscope-ethernet-connection-ni-visa but unfortunately, my NIMax does not find my scope. I tried to find it automatically, to enter the IP adress directly - nothing works.

 

I've installed Labview 2011 and NI-VISA5.1

 

Best regards, Tina
