RIGOL DS2072 - USB NI-VISA Initialization Error

$

Hi all,

I'm trying to configure my RIGOL DS2072 oscilloscope to work with LabView through USB, but I'm can't seem to figure it out.

I have LabView 2013 Evaluation on Windows 8 x64, NI-VISA 5.4 and also got Rigol's software UltraSigma (to retrieve printscreens which works fine).

I'm using the LabView examples for DS2000 series and when I run any of them, LabView just hangs and I cannot stop the program unless I disconnect the USB cable. After I reconnect the cable and re-run the VI I get this error.

−1073807240The value of some parameter (which parameter is not known) is invalid

 

The error gets triggered from 'VISA Clear' module which, from what I've read, it clears the devices read/write buffers (http://zone.ni.com/reference/en-XX/help/371361H-01/lvinstio/visa_clear/)

This is similar to this person's issue, but I have the latest NI-VISA and it didn't fix it. - https://decibel.ni.com/content/message/46529

 

Also i've noticed that those DS2000 series example from the NI website have not been specifically tested for DS2072. This may be a reason, but I would assume that they all have similar configurations. 

 

Just to be sure that the program works, I've connected through LAN cable and it worked fine. Now to me it seems that NI-VISA has some issues with my type of oscilloscope. Can anyone look into this for me. I'd really appreciate your help. 

 

Thank you

Dragos.
