TCP/IP address problem

Hi all, i am trying to remote communicate with my Thermotron oven that has a 8800 programmer via Ethernet.  I have downloaded the chambers instrument driver files from their web site and would like to use these in my program.  All that i am trying to do is take a temperature reading remotely.
I have set up max VISA TCP/IP Resources and can communicate that way.  I can also communicate through Thermotrons supplied software and also by using the low level TCP palette (TCP open connection.vi).
However why trying to use the Labview instrument driver files, eg Initialize vi, i am receiving errors.  I think the problem is the resource name address i am using.  That is "TCPIP0::ipaddress::port::SOCKET"
Can anyone suggest a fix?

The problem was that the instrument drivers required IVI engine.
