Hi,

Pre-edit: This is the first time i am using GPIB interface. I read the GPIB tutorial of NI so far.

Currently, I  am trying to connect a YOKOGAWA 2533E via GPIB. I have LABVIEW 2017 and NI-MAX 17 The current situation is:

  • The device is in addrassable mode and has the address of C (12).
  • I have a advantech model GPIB PCI card in the computer.
  • I have bought a GPIB cable and connected the device to computer.So far so good.
  • I have made the GPIB config from NI MAX set the address and the timeout etc. When i try to query smthng like *IDN? i get a timeout error which indicates that I think i made some config wrong or the device is inreachable. So i wanted to download a device driver. 
  • I downloaded the device driver from:

 http://sine.ni.com/apps/utf8/niid_web_display.download_page?p_id_guid=E3B19B3E9381659CE034080020E74861

  • When i try to convert the .fp to Labview driver from Instrument Driver Import in Labview i get the error below
