DSOX1102G read marker Y value

Ok so I am puzzled on this one .   If I use the Keysight tool to send command to the oscilloscope… MARK:Y1P? Results in the value of the Y value of the marker.  Sending the same command in Labview I get a huge number like 99e34 or something like that.   What am I doing wrong??  I am sending the same SCPI command I would expect the same result.

Yes, the same command will give the same results because the scope doesn't know what software is talking with it under the condition that "all settings are same", did you verify that all other settings are "exactly" the same between using Keysight tool vs LabVIEW?

Yes, I have them open at the same time with the scope in a static state.  I went as far as just making a simple VI that all it does write the same exact SCPI command.  the Keysight tool will give the marker result that is shown on the scope screen LabVIEW gives the insanely high number.

Not sure if this is a true solution but I got it working by putting a small delay between the VISA write and the read.
