Instrument only works with NI Spy running.

From the Spy file I can't see the Termination char on send?  Do you have the wrong setting? the Sorenrsons need the term char to work RELIABLY although they usually understand the commands anyway the command parser does get confused on occasion.

 

How is the LF appended to the write message? Do I add a \n or 0x0A to the write buffer?

OK, went to MAX and set EOS to 10. Also set send eoi with eos. I tried a lot of combinations of termination. Also told it I had many meters of cable. Nothing helps. I need to put the *WAI in next. But that will have to wait as this is a deployment system w/o debug.

Got a NI USB GPIB adapter this a.m. and tried it out. It doesn't care about the termination settings, it works regardless.

sounds like a solution!

 

Hmmmm It MUST be timing!  (the extra overhead of the USB-GPIB adaptor)
