Hi,
I've been trying to communicate with LeCroy Waverunner 64Xi through ethernet. I have read the other posts on how to set up the connection and I thin it is working properly as it responds well when tested through the Measurement & Automation Explorer.
The VISA source name shows up as well.
The issue is that on all the Labview codes provided I get an error:
"Error 85 occurred at Scan From String (arg 1) in lcwave Wait For Acquisition Complete.vi->lcwave Read Single Waveform.vi"
"Error 85 occurred at Scan From String (arg 1) in lcwave Wait For Acquisition Complete.vi"
"Error 85 occurred at Scan From String (arg 1) in lcwave Read Waveform Measurement (Px).vi"
the possible reason given is -> Scan failed. The input string does not contain data in the expected format.
I'm guessing that it's due to the code itself not being configured for the TCP/IP connection? Help
Solved! Go to Solution.

Perhaps instead of blinding using the VIs, you can look inside and see what they are actually doing.

I'm a newbi at Labview, and I've been learning it only for a few few weeks, but I still know enough to check the VI. If I ask its because I don't know how to fix the issue. I would rather have someone more experienced then I take a look for 5 min and tell me whats wrong rather then spend hours scratching my head (as I have already been doing).
Attached is the actual code

The simple reason is that you are not getting the data in a format that is expected. I would put a probe right after the read from the instrument and make sure you are getting data. If you aren't, then there is a connection issue.
