Hello everyone,
you guys are my last hope. I am studying Electrical Engineering and I have a project in which I have to automate a test sequence with some devices.
My idea is to write a Python script that communicates with the Devices with SCPI commands
I have 2 Keysight devices and one Power Supply from R&S "HMP4040". There are no problems with the Keysight devices and I can communicate freely with them
Only the HMP4040 shows trouble:
The power supply does not get shown in NI MAX or Keysight connection expert, which I need to find out the VISA address.
- Installed the VISA libraries from National Instruments, R&S and Keysight
- Installed the HMP4040 driver for the HO730 board (Device Manager in Attachements/ it shows the device in "USB-Controller")
I have read that I have to configure my settings so I can communicate via VISA but I cannot find any sources for help
The HMexplorer which has a SCPI-Terminal CAN communicate with it which is quite confusing for me. If I query *IDN? it does not show me a VISA-address, instead some information about the device (see attached)
Also have to add that I use a VM (VMWare Workstation Windows10 64Bit), no troubles with other devices, only the HMP4040
I hope you guys can help me out here!
Thanks in advance!
