I have one Fluke 8842a connected using GPIB to USB interface (I have a UGPlus controller-cable and not a NI version). I am trying to use Labview to read the instrument data using call library function - dlls. In specific, I am reading ultra-low resistance values from Fluke.
The problem is that the read function doesn't work if I set high-precision (smallest resistance range - 0.xxxx ohms) on Fluke and gives me a timeout error. Even a single input read command doesn't work in this range. Strangely, all other ranges like 0.xxx or more higher ranges work just fine. The only problem occurs is in the lowest range/high-precision data reading.
Fluke manual portrays that it takes approx 1.24 reading/sec in high-precision ranges. Any ideas what may be wrong with this?
Thanks!
