I am having an issue with the PCI-GBIP working correctly for our setup. I have removed NI 488.2, and all associated software from the computer and have done new installs of NI 488.2 v1.7 and GPIB software.
Configuration for the software allows me to choose the board type, and configure the board.
When I test the board using diagnostics, I get the board as passed.
When I open device manager, it sees the board as PCI Simple Communications Controller. MAX Does not read the card at all.
I am using this to control an ICP-OES using WinLab32, and can get a connection, but am getting a Status Command Failed when attempting to light the plasma. There is communication, but I don't believe that it is all there.
I have tried reinstalling multiple times, but to no avail. There is no NI-VISA on the computer, but I didn't uninstall this either. I attempted to install NI-VISA 4.2 and it stopped communicating entirely.
Any help is greatly appreciated as I am stumped.
