LCR Meter 880 LabVIEW Driver-Configure VI help

[mshask]

Can't seem to get the Configure VI to work, need ideas and help

From manual-

select parameter command is FUNCtion:impa C

query parameter command is FUNCtion:impa?

Wondering maybe if I might need the command too to set the equivalent mode-series or parallel??

VI is attached.

You do not need Bytes at Port.  Simply use 100 or 1024 as the input to byte count of the VISA read and see what you get.  You might need a delay before the read, but bytes at port is most likely giving you a 0 and the thus the VISA Read is not collecting data.

You might want to configure the timeout and termination characters if you don't get an answer.  Have you tried *IDN? and got it to return anything.

Are you using this VI stand alone or as a subvi?  You might want to do a VISA Open to initiate communications then, do the writing and reading, then do a VISA close.  More like..
