error in old VISA open in 6.1 when saved from 7.1

[lellallel]

I usually work with labview 7.1. I have created a program for sosl 1260 that works correctly. I have saved this program in 6.1 but at this point an error happens when I try to run it. This error happens with old Visa open. how can I solve it? Are there any differences in these two version of the program?

Have you tried replacing the Old VISA Open with the VISA Open on the normal pallet.

There are some major differences with the "Old" VISA Open. The old one had both a string and VISA resource inputs. The string is what you used for the despcriptor such as GPIB0::5::INSTR. The current Open VISA only has a VISA Resource Name as an input and this can also be a string. I'm not sure how saving a 7.1 VI back to 6.1 could have put the old function there. I've never seen that happen. I don't think the old function is compatible with newer versions of VISA. The solution is to replace all instances of Old VISA Open with the current VISA Open.

Thanks for the answer, but I haven't solved the problem. This is the error code it's gives to me : -1073807346. It says: "This error code is not listed in the internal database, or you have wired a number that is not an error code (such as a DAQ task ID) to the error code input.". But this doesn't happen when I use 7.1 version. I have tried to modify this VI as you told me, but the error happens again. Thanks..

I send you this VI

This VI has the Old VISA Open. Replace with the regular VISA Open on the palette. Delete the string control called "Resource Name (GPIB::2)". Make the "VISA session (for class)" control visible. Wire this control to the upper left terminal of the connector pane where the string control used to be connected.
