multiread keithley 6517A GPIB vi

Hi

 

The multiread vi available with the plug and play driver of keithley 6517A gives me zero value for the cluster of readings..I tried with 5 count with the source being immediate. The vi runs without any error code but the measurement reading is zero. My aim is to get the current reading every sec for a period of 1000sec, I tried using source as timer and timer value as 1sec and delay as 1sec too, please let me know if I am going wrong somewhere. The single read vi works fine.

 

Thanks a lot!!

Here is a way that you can get it to work using the Single Read VI.

As for the Multi Read, I am not sure why that wouldn't work. Are you getting an array of 5 values that are all 0, or is the array just empty? It could be something with the trigger settings in the Read Multi VI. If you post the VI that you are calling Read Multi from, then we can check it out.
