Question about reading measurement data on an HP4155

[niedk]

Hello,

I'm having problems finding the appropriate syntax for querrying my device(an HP 4155) for measurement data that I had measured earlier in my code. I know I need to send a VISA write command to the 4155 and then I need to have a VISA read command after that to get the data. From what I found in the 4155 programming guide, I think I have the SCPI commands correct, but I get no output from the device in question. I've attached my code if anyone cares to look.

Thanks,

Konrad

Hey Konrad,

Does the computer recognize the device? 

Does the device show up in Measurment and Automation Explorer (MAX)?

We need to make sure that the device shows up in MAX before we can use it. Here is a pretty good walk through that you may find useful for setting up the device:
