Keithley GPIB only works on Ch 1?

Hello All,

 

I am new to LabView - doing the 45 day evaluation. So far, I have been successful getting my power supplies and scope connected with basic functions verified. With my Keithley 2700 DMM, I hve run into a problem and found nothing on the forum or documentation that has helped. 

 

The problem is that the Keithley 2700 only seems to respond on GPIB channel 1. It is connected through a Tektronix VXI-GPIB controller that all my other GPIB insruments are succesfully working on. I have tried multiple cables and reset/power cycled everything. When ch1 is selected, it comes up in the VISA interactive control and responds to commands. All of the other instruments can be whatever channel I choose. 

 

Not sure if it is related or not, but when I tried some of the examples for the Keithley 2700, I get this error: "Error -1073807330 occurred at Property Node (arg 1) in Keithley 27XX.lvlib:Initialize.vi->Keithley 27XX Single Measurement.vi"

 

Of course I took a look at the Initialize.vi but it is ahead of my knowledge. Trying to figure out why the instrument only responds on one channel and if it could be related to additional trouble I am having getting the example VI to initialize.
