VISA read timeout

[LM84]

Double checked my C code and i wasnt sending the carriage return...I aint even mad.

I think it means your controller is not sending the termination character.  It was waiting for 1000 bytes, the termination character, or the timeout time, whichever occurred first.  Since it was unlikely you were really going to get 1000 bytes, you must not have been getting the termination character.

(By the way, the screenshot of the errors and indicators like I was asking for would have shown whether the CR was in the read string or not.  )

See, by ignoring this error you were missing the fact that the device being tested was not operating as it should.

Lesson learned?

haha, yes definitely. Especially since this controller is set to be released in April. I would have released a faulty controller!!

Hi,

    i have just started to paly around with VISA for my rigol device and I noticed that when I run the program without having the VISA close block at the end, the program is running successful only randomly. After putting the VISA close block it works ok.

Hello!!

I made a program that reads data from an Arduino microprocessor. Once I realize the exe and connect Arduino, the program starts reading the data, but only for a few minutes ... then it stops and i have to disconnect and reconnect Arduino....any ideas?

Thanks a lot!

You posted to the end of an old, long message thread that seems to have nothing to do with your question.

I recommend you start a new message thread.  What does "realize the exe" mean?  Please start a new thread with a clearer message describing how you wrote your VI.  Perhaps attach the VI so others can look at it and look for potential problems rather than speculating wildly on what the problem may be.
