I'm trying to take a current measurement with an HP34970A DAQ. I'm using a state machine to do this. Also I'm performing voltage & frequency measurement prior to this current read. The 34970A errors out during the current read state. I need to measure voltage, current, power & freqency with this DAQ.I also have a power supply & Fluke Hydra in this setup but not having problems with these items so far.

If you get an error and really want some help, you need to provide the error code that you are getting. We are not mind readers.
The shipping example Agilent 34970 Advanced Scan can be modified to get all of your measurements in a single scan. Have you tried that?
Also, your instrument is not an NI DAQ card so you posted to the wrong board. In the future, post new questions to the Instrument Control board.
