California Instruments 1251RP

[antique]

I am trying to control a California Instruments 1251RP. I have made cable and use the software that came with the unit and it works so I know I can talk to the unit. I can go into MAX and use the Visa test panel and using the *IDN?\n get the ID of the device so I know that LabView should work with it. When I try and use LabView and create a visa I just get errors.  Would anyone have any suggestions or examples to get this to work? The manual has SCPI Command Reference but anytime I enter a command I get more errors. I am using a USB to DB9 adaptor and Labview 2011what I need to do is control the voltage output and change it a few times an hour for a test. Any information will be appreciated.

Thank you

Post your VI.

Hard to diagnose from afar as it is.

I got it working. I think what happed is I had too many things opened and all looking at the same port.

Reboot and I found an example code for the California Instruments website and was able to use parts of that to get it to work.

Thanks
