hello samuel,

basically you can receive error messages from a driver.
which driver are you using?
how do you call it?
how is the structure of the error, which is returned?

Robert,

I am using the IVI driver for Agilent Multimeter,

I call It as IVI setp in teststand.

I Get a Runtime Error from the driver. which I can ignore, break or trying again

hello samuel,

you could overwrite the callback function:
"Edit -> Sequence File Callbacks -> SequenceFilePostStepRuntimeError"
this function will be called everytime after a runtimeerror occurs and you can handle it the way you need it for your application.

Robert,

I have tested this an it seems to work.

But I get the same run time error message as before.

How can I achieve that the run time error message PopUp does not occure any more

You don't want to catch the error, you want to fix it. What is the error number and message? Can you find the instrument in MAX and is it configured correctly there? Is it a GPIB instrument?
