GPIB on different computers

[zeozon]

Hello!

I´ve compiled a program which communicates with an thermography camera. On my notebook, it works properly, but on the desktop pc gpib communication crashs after a few aqusitions from the camera.
I use the same card (PCMCIA-GPIB) and the same driver version. My notebook is very old (Pentium 3, 500 MHz), the desktop PC is new (P4, 3 GHz).

In the program, I use standard GPIB-VIs.

Hope you can help me.

Greetings
Andy

Hi,

Does your program shut down the LabVIEW? or what error does it show?
Do you use the same version of OS and LabVIEW?

I use the same OS WinXP, only the service packs are different, but I think it doesn´t matter. The error is a generally I/O-error, writing error or reading error from GPIB.

In that case, why dont you try simple vi to test your GPIB communicaton with your instrument. or you can even use the NIMAX to check your commnuication system.
If you can commnuicate fine with your instrument with simple vi or using NIMAX, then I suggest you post your VI here so that we can take a look and I am sure ppl here might be able to solve it out.
