Agilent MXA Series Instrument Driver hangs and makes LabView hang

$

Hello NI,

 

I am controlling a Agilent / Keysight N9000B CXA Signal Analyzer, but should be applicable to other Signal Analyzers from Keysight.

 

When I am in Mode "Swept SA" and sending command ":FETC:OBW1?;" which is a command designed for "Occupied Bandwidth" mode, then the driver and also LabView 18 IDE completely hangs and I have to destroy the LabView IDE process through task manager.

 

The Driver I use:

Place where this error occures:

 

OBW Icon.jpgOBW Send Read Command.jpg

 

Occures while Reading 4096 bytes.

Setting the timeout has no effect !!!

 

On the screen of the SignalAnalyzer a message pops up that a wrong command was sent. But the LabView driver should not hang.

 

Could you check and correct the driver?

 

Thanks and BR

Eugen Wiebe
