I've done a little research on this forum and found some basic stuff relating to sending GPIB commands via the NI-MAX test panel over the loopback address. To set this up myself, I opened NI-MAX, used the prompts to add a new device to the Network Devices section, did a manual entry of a LAN instrument, entered 127.0.0.1, and the resulting resource name was TCPIP0:127.0.0.1:INSTR. However, the button to open the test panel for this device is grayed out. I can ping the address, so I know I can reach it. What did I do wrong?
