Can not use driver converted from Labwindows

[aha]

I have an old instrument, HP6060A, in the idt there is only labwindows driver.

I created labwindows dll from the evaluation software and opened my labview and created a wrapper from the dll.

However I was trying to get the initialization vi work. The original c definition is:

int hp605xa_init(GPIB_Address, ID_Query, Reset_Device,

                                Instrument_ID);

where the GPIB_Address is an interger from 0 to 30. I tried to get this vi work but always get an error of 230 which is Error writing to instrument

The GPIB address is matched and I double checked the GPIB cable, it is fine. Am I missing something here? Do I need more library files to get this working?

There are LabVIEW drivers here for the 6060B. Perhaps those will work for you. Usually the letter at the end indicates a different current/voltage/power range.
