How to correctly install the keithley 2010 library

I'm trying to control the keithley 2010 multimeter with the GPIB card. a problem i found is the correct installation of the library I downloaded from the site of keithley. It does not have the MNU file so when I open the function palette the various component of the library are not present. I overcome the problem using the examples they give and copying and pasting them. But I would like to correctly install the library. Furthermore I continue to have an error (121) when I try to configure the keithley for DC measurement with a certain number of digits. I checked the meaning of the 121 error and I found it is invalid character in number but no idea where it comes from. I attached the vi...hopefully someone can help me.

You can copy the llb from Keithley to the LabVIEW\instr.lib folder, this will make it appear in the instrument driver pallette of LabVIEW, LabVIEW reads this directory when it is launched.

As for the error 121, this seems to be generated by the instrument driver, I would advice checking the message string for errors, you should be able to find the correct syntax for these strings in the instruments documentation.
