Connection ethernet or GPIB with Keithley 2612

Hallo

Here's my situation:

I'm relatively new to LabVIEW programming and want to install a configuration of measurement with LabVIEW and a SMU double Keithley 2612.

If I m work myself through Labview Beginners Guides and how to connect a measuring device with the first simple LabVIEW program.

Since I Don t own a GPIB-USB adapter for the moment, I was thinking of using Ethernet for the EMS connection that gets ist own IP address. The connection to the PC works and SMU SMU ethernet can be remote controlled.

Here's my problem:

I can´t find (usable) guides for the installation of LabView via Ethernet.

My 500 pages book 'Introduction to LabVIEW' (as of 2009) doesn´t have even a hint for an ethernet connection, while the GPIB, RS232 and CAN are covered pretty well.

Here's my question:

Should I continue to try to get LabVIEW working on Ethernet, or would it be better to buy a new adapter USB GPIB.

Does anyone know good Howto for creating Ethernet connections?

Should I just the bad 'Introduction to Labview?

The use of Ethernet has disadvantages compared to the GPIB-USB?

I'm happy to answer additional questions.

Thank you.

Download the Labview driver for the series of 26xxA from Keithley web site.

For a Visa resource string use something of the form: "tcpip::aaa.bbb .ccc. ddd::instr" where aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd is the ip address of the instrument that you can get through the façade or run MAX and auto-le discover.

When you finally get a USB-GPIB converter all you have to do is change the resource in the form of gpib string: GPIB::XX:instr «»

  • The Keithley 2612 is compatible with Labview 7.1?

    Hello

    I have a shiny new Keithley 2612 A two-channel sourcemeter and want to begin using this system of our laboratory.  We are currently using LabView 7.1.

    I found a driver for the 2612 has, but he says that it is only compatible with LabView 8 or later:

    http://www.Keithley.com/base_download?dassetid=51950

    Does anyone know of another driver, or another method that I could get this thing working in LabView 7.1?

    Thank you very much

    John

    Download and publish it on the thread Downconvert .

    Edit - this is a style of project pilot who introduced with LabVIEW 8. It might take a little longer.

  • How is it that a computer which works very well with a direct Ethernet connection won't work with a switch, however any other computer using the same port, cable, ect, and so on, can?

    Switch issues. Help, please.

    How is it that a computer which works very well with a direct Ethernet connection won't work with a switch, however any other computer using the same port, cable, ect, and so on, can? We already checked the firewall as a question, that it was not, and now, we are puzzled.

    Well, I know that the issue is long-term... believe me, it's a long, but as they say, the devil is in the details. Anywho, the question is, my grandfather has a HP laptop, which for two years has been able to run through a Linksys switch to his router and connect its printers to his laptop. About two months ago it suddenly doesn't work like that. Now, it works fine if it plugs directly into the router/Ethernet. My uncle suggested that the switch was bad, but after testing the same port, cable and all, the switch worked well for him. ' GRAMPS really needs this answered, but someone else, it is called can not understand and now I, in turn, ask you all for what you can offer. Here are the ideas that we have already discredited.

    -Switch bad: as above, is that this particular laptop, even under identical conditions, the works of my uncle very well.
    -Bad NIC: debunked through the fact we connected to the computer directly to the router and it worked fine.
    -Bad configuration of the firewall: we have disabled the firewall (please do not notice, he wasn't the smartest idea, we already know) and even if she recorded the switch exists, the internet is always triggered when you are connected with the switch.

    Thanks in advance for any assistance that you can provide and Merry Christmas to you all.

    It would be useful to consult the results of the ipconfig/all command both when it is connected to the switch and when it is connected directly to the router.  In addition, what is the model of the switch?

    To save the manual copy and the new hits of the ipconfig/all command output-

    First connect through switch.
    Open a command prompt window (start > run > cmd > OK)
    Type the following lines in the black command prompt window and press ENTER after each line

    echo "Connected via the button" > "% UserProfile%\Desktop\ipinfo.txt".
    ipconfig/all > "% UserProfile%\Desktop\ipinfo.txt".

    Now connect directly to the router, type the following lines in the command prompt window and press ENTER after each line

    echo "Connected to the router" > "% UserProfile%\Desktop\ipinfo.txt".
    ipconfig/all > "% UserProfile%\Desktop\ipinfo.txt".
    Notepad '% UserProfile%\Desktop\ipinfo.txt '.
    output

    Copy the contents of the Notepad window in your response (if you use the laptop when it is connected directly to the router) or close the Notepad window, and then copy ipinfo.txt of the laptop to the Gramps in a USB FlashDrive you can connect to any computer allows you to answer.

    You can delete ipinfo.txt on the desktop when you are finished.

  • Executable VI generating an error 222 on Keithley 2612 although his run correctly when starting labview 2009 directly

    Hi all

    I have a VI that works perfectly and I can control, a 2612 Keithley has for measurements of transistor.

    The VI run well when I realize it from the computer that has the Labview 2009 (XP OS) platform

    Equipment (IE Keithley 2612 A) is related to another computer that is not labview 2009.

    I installed the Run-time-engine 2009 (32-bit XP OS) on this computer.

    Then, I create an executable of my VI with the option 'build application.

    The executable VI starts normally on the computer, but when I run it, I get an error message from the Keithley 2612 (which wasn't the case when I ran the VI directly from the computer haing LabVIEW 2009 installed on it). The error message is 222 (ie the long parameter)

    I thought I did something wrong and I create an executable from an original VI of Keithley (IE without modification). I get the same error message.

    When I create an executable with the runtime engine 2009 included (because it is possible to do with LB 2009), I am geeting the same error message.

    So I need to check step after step, when the message arrives but

    Someone knows something about such a question?

    Thank you

    Hi all

    Just for those who might experience a similar problem.

    I found the solution after fighting all the possibilities.

    The source of the problem was (for some reason) that the country setting of the computer was wrong

    and decimals are written with one, instead of a point.

    As I correctly reset the country setting, stand-alone files work normally.

    Best regards

  • computer not automatically standby (formerly titled "impossible computer automatically sleep when it is connected to the internet with modem cable")

    Hi, I noticed recently that my computer (Windows XP Media Center Edition 2005) is unable to sleep automatically when it is connected to the internet with a cable modem. Change the settings for my current power mode and try a different feeding regime (diagrams of Windows XP default power and power management, I created) only solves the problem for 2 days at most. I also tried to change the settings for the other power plans mentioned, and yet once again, the problem was only set for two days at the most. I also tried turning off my computer, restarting my computer, recording Powercfg /Restore Default policies in Run, saving sfc/scannow in Run, and again, I got the same result. Reset and power cycling the modem cable is not helped either. To help you better understand the problem, for example, if I had the date set for the screensaver set to 1 minute, the time for the monitor to turn off set to 2 minutes and time for your computer set to 3 minutes, the screen saver activate after 1 minute, the monitor turns off after 2 minutes, but the computer would not sleep mode after 3 minutes , even after an hour or more. I tried to check the Task Manager, and I have not noticed any process that would be interrupting the day before. However, I noticed that when I turned on the monitor by moving the mouse, even when the computer was unable to sleep and unplugged the ethernet cable from the cable modem and waited, the computer has entered standby as it should have.  I tried to find a solution for more than a week, contributions for this issue would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for taking the time to read my post. (Update: it seems that the problem is something else then my cable modem.)

    Hello

    Thank you for the update.

    This behavior can occur because of possible conflicts of third-party software, which includes the third-party security software.

    You can also temporarily disable third-party security software and firewalls installed on the system and check the issue.

    If disabling the antivirus software solves the problem, you may need to configure the settings of the antivirus as a result program. Please contact the software vendor for assistance in this regard.

    Note: be sure to enable the security software on the computer after checking the issue.

    Note: When you perform a clean boot, you can activate services for the modem, network card and disable third-party services to check the issue.

    Hope the helps of information. Let us know if you need help with Windows related issues. We will be happy to help you.

  • NAT9914 - direct connection to the GPIB bus

    Hello

    I have some experience with NAT9914xx.  I understand, from various sources, this ASIC is connected to the GPIB bus through a Transceiver ICs, i.e. it SN75ALS160 and SN75ALS162.  While I'm waiting for the part, I wish I can perform some tests.

    So here's the question: If the only devices exist on a GPIB bus is my test Board and a GPIB equipment, can I have the NAT9914 on my board test connected directly to the GPIB bus without using the transceivers?

    Thanks & best regards,

    Tan of WH

    Hello

    These transceivers are absolutely necessary to communicate with GPIB instruments.  It's why they're in the hardware section of the manual 9914.  Transceivers will display correct tension/line transitions.  Without them, there will be errors in communication.

    I hope this helps.

  • No connection Ethernet - Pavilion Elite M9280F

    Hello

    I got a new Pavilion Elite M9280F (KJ380AAR), but I can't any signal Ethernet no matter, I've tried since I bought it.
    I have Verizon DSL. I connected the new PC with Ethernet cable to the modem (Verizon Weastell 6100) directly with any other router.

    I called HP and Verizon supports several times, once again the test runned much and yet once again, uninstall/reinstall, system recovery, power cables, switch etc... After hours, they told me that the NIC in the PC does not work. And I had already sent my PC to the HP service center to be fixed to 3 times (same question, without result).
     
    Well, frankly, HP could not find something wrong on it. I even had someone repair center called me and he said that they tested the PC for 2 hours, that everything is fine and also could run DSL via Ethernet in their very good network cable.

    Westall 6100 (modem/router) works flawlessly. I tried to reset it.
    Driver/network adapter shows fine in Device Manager.
    I tried different cables (cat5) Ethernet.

    I don't have a wireless setup.

    Ethernet port LED is not lit.
    ipconfig/all shows "Media disconnected."

    In the meantime, I always can get online using my old PC WinXP without any problem (same configuration with ethernet cable, plug-and-play).

    It's really frustrating, any help would be much appreciated.

    I don't think you are going to use the dial-up modem. Just pull out and use this location. Your just try anyway. There is no use keeping the card if it doesn't. You can return it.

    I'm just a person like you and offering my time and advice. If you need help from HP, you will need to contact them.

  • Problem connecting ethernet HP C309a.

    Hi, I have a HP Photosmart Premium C309a of AiO. I have the printer connected via ethernet cable to my linksys wrt54g router. I chose to have connected to it as a device wired because of the quality of the connection. The problem I have is that the device refuses to get an IP address from my router when its connection speed is set to auto, 100-Full, a half 100 or 10 half. I'm only able to get the unit to connect by using a link 10-Full speed. I've had the camera for a while now, and it worked very well defined to automatic. I'm fairly certain that I am using the ethernet cable provided with the printer, what should be a cat5 or cat5e, so the cable is capable of handling. In addition, as I said, it was working fine before and suddenly connects is more to my network on these parameters. I tried to contact the HP support, which they have been no help for me. They said that if the device 10-fully functioning unit works very well. They said that they had no network at HP specialists who could help me with the problem and that I needed to contact radioshack or bestbuy to solve the [no] problem. IM confident enough, it is not a network problem and it is more than likely something with the ethernet on the printer or the printer itself or printer port.

    I also have a HP C309g-m which works without problems with the speed set to auto

    My concern is that if the ethernet port is deteriorating on the device that finally the functionality of the ethernet port will fail soon.

    The printer is accessible by several different computers, whose operating systems are Windows XP to Windows 7.

    I think it's pretty shitty that support HP says that there is nothing wrong with the unit even if its link speed works only 10%.

    Any help is appreciated.

    Thank you!

    OK, suppose that it is not the printer for now.  Make sure that your router has the latest firmware and it is restarted (pull on the plug for a bit).

    In addition, replace the Ethernet cable, try a CAT6 cable.

  • Satellite A500 - 15 M: unable to connect to the TV with HDMI

    Hello

    I have a Satellite A500 - 15M. I recently tried to connect to my TV so I could watch certain shows online on my Hannspree Xv HD ready TV.
    The HDMI out does any record on the TV - the TV displays a message "not supported" and remains off (as if there is no signal) - display settings on the PC it does not recognize the TV... actually it [Intel Graphics and Media Control Panel] indicates that the TV/monitor settings are not supported.

    But I can connect via the VGA output - although I have to delete the display settings to 1024 x 768 to show on TV. In addition the display on the TV then is mainly pink and red, even if my pc display peak is most often blue. -start of the Toshiba screen displays on the TV, without any problems and one or twice the login screen was displayed too much, but then sometimes it isn't...
    I know that's not the VGA cable as I can connect to the TV with it on netbook advent my wife without any problem.
    Are there drivers, I need to update / download? Or I need to change the settings?
    How can I get my screen on my TV?

    Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you

    Hello

    First, you must connect the two machines (laptop and TV via HDMI) when the two devices are turned off. After turn on the TV and the laptop.

    You must choose the HDMI on TV channel and should then use the FN + F5 key combination to switch the video output to the TV.

    If this does not help, try updating the graphics card driver.
    It seems that your laptop supports the Intel graphics chip. Therefore, you can see the Intel page for new drivers.
