Testing if FP-1000 is powered up

[scharppe]

When using the FP-1000, Measurement Studio,VB 6.0 and Datasocket, how can I test to see if the FP-1000 is powered up before connecting to FieldPoint modules.
When executing CWDS_DI1(0).ConnectTo "opc://localhost/National Instruments.OPCFieldPoint/FP Res\FP-DI-330 @1\All", cwdsReadAutoUpdate on an un-powered FP-1000, is there an error message returned or some other way to determine if the FP-1000 is powered up?
Thank you in advance for your help

If a FP-1000/1001 is not powered on, you will receive a "No Response within timeout period error". I do not know the specific error code off the top of my head.
