Connecting to Cornerstone 130 Newport Monochromator with GPID

I have been trying to connect this Monochromator via GPID but my Invoke node keeps producing a 1172 error. So I figured it was a problem with my drivers not being updated. Then I went to Newport's website and installed drivers for the 130 but no luck. Is there a way to connect and initialize the device if I don't have the drivers and if so how would I go about doing that? Unless I just have the wrong drivers then which ones should I be using?

First off, I would use a utility from the manufacturer to connect to the instrument. Have you been able to do that?
This user manual makes mention of working with the instrument in LabVIEW on page 58: https://www.newport.com/medias/sys_master/images/images/h8f/hb0/8797226860574/Oriel-Cornerstone-130-...

I do not have the utility on this computer as we just got a new one nor do I think our past computer had it either. So I should contact the manufacturer to get a new one? I am guessing that would make my life a lot easier.

If you go to the "Resources" section at the bottom of the product page, you will find some software. I would try Oriel Monoutility or the 740XX with the correct connection type.
