Problem with IVI DC Power step types, following upgrade to IVI Compliance Package 2.2

[McGregorMortis]

I upgraded the IVI software on my computer to IVI Compliance Package 2.2 (previously using the separate IVI Engine and Basic IVI Class Drivers, etc, etc). Now the TestStand 2.0.1 IVI Tools: Set Attribute step type no longer works. I'm trying to set the IVIDCPWR_ATTR_VOLTAGE_LEVEL attribute. It works if I specify it as a number (1250001). But I if I give it the name as a string, I get an "Attribute ID not recognized" error. It used to work.

Have I perhaps configured something wrong in that impenetrably complicated MAX thingy? It's all changed on me now.

BTW, I'm setting the attribute instead of just using the IVI Power Supply Configure step, because the Configure step always tries to set the Overvoltage Protection too, which will generate an error if you do it on channel 2 of an Agilent 66309B supply. Setting the VOLTAGE_LEVEL attribute directly is the only way to I know to prevent that error.

Hi,

Please try to set either "AG663XXA_ATTR_VOLTAGE_LEVEL" or just "ATTR_VOLTAGE_LEVEL" instead of "IVIDCPWR_ATTR_VOLTAGE_LEVEL" and let us know if that works.

Thanks!

I'm sorry, I've already unintalled the IVI Compliance Package, and started trying to get my system running again with the older IVI Engine again. I can't afford the time to debug this, especially when my entire motivation for upgrading IVI turned out to be a dead-end anyway (the drivers for the Tek 3032B scope don't support the interchannel-delay measurement.)

Downgrading is not entirely a trivial exercise either, unfortunately. I've been working on it for a day and a half now.
