Keithley is the only person who has created a pilot for this instrument. Suffice it to say that it does not work well is to go. Could you give a few actual details so that someone can try to understand the problems you are having. Please include the codes/messages error, your code, etc. You can also try to contact Keithley to see if you can get a support from them for their code.

  • 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 «»

  • scanning voltage and current measurement for Keithley 2400

    Dear all

    Hello

    can someone help me?

    Despite days nearlly10 I am option to find any program LabVIEW 2010 for sweeping the voltage and measure current who works with RS-232, I have a end not have nothing exept examples read single and multiple data. I tried to SmartData labview and changed a few prorgram gpib to RS - 232, but I couldn't.

    In another attempt to find a good VI "votltage scanning and current measurement" that work with RS-232 in labview 5.1.1. I have converted in 2008, but it takes old driver (ke24xx.dll) and do not work in my labview 2010 and I could ' t find older driver.

    My thesis project was halted in those 10 days, and I couldn't do anything for our keithley.

    Please helpe...

    in the following, I have attached these files:

    1.-first, what voltage scan that works with GPIB

    2 - Vi that I change the gpib for visa (rs232) port that I don't know why it doesn't work.

    3. it is Vi related to the "sweeping and current measurement votltage" that works with the RS-232, but it takes old dirver so I can't use it.

    4-slot-VI necessary for the implementation of program 3 (but there is no driver for these subVIs) was attached to the reply message of this post

    If any body has this program ("scan votltage and current measurement" running rs - 232) please send to me

    Thanks in advance.

    None of you attached the screws are the driver OR you spoke. There is no conversion required for this driver.

  • Keithley 6517 helped serial interface

    Hello

    I use an instrument, the electrometer Keithley 6517 A, to control using Labview and am very new to this software (1 week). All I have is a RS232 cable. I downloaded the driver, but it is for cable IEEE 488.2 (GPIB), which does not work with RS232. I did some research and discovered that you can use the SCIP language to control the instrument using RS232.

    Can someone please help me to write a simple program that uses the RS232 cable to control the instrument?

    The program I want to implement is essentially to measure the change in voltage between the two wires, while incrementing the voltage source integrated instrument by all about 0, 1V.

    For ex, the source voltage will increase by 0.1V, wait for about 3 seconds to stabilize the blood reading, read and record the voltage in a file, repeat after increment of 0.1.

    Information that may help

    Instruments: Keithley 6517 has

    Cable interface: RS-232

    Software: Labview 8.5

    News of the computer: Vista X 64 bit

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Thank you very much


  • How to synchronize streams RS232 and GPIB in labview

    Dear all, SOS.

    I built a system with 2 instruments GPIB and serial RS232 1 instrument.

    The VI works well with high light performance. But when I run the program normally with games step by step, what I get is only the stream GPIB. The serial data is not found after reading the GPIB data.

    I wonder if there is a sync issue. If so, how can I get these two data streams synchronized?

    BTW: I was trying to use the RS232-GPIBCVA converter to connect GPIB, but always had error6 at visa read. I still can't understand. Without the GPIB-RS232 converter, data can be read with the series making.

    I'm fighting this case several days, hope you guys can give me some suggestions!  Thank you very much!

    A quick glance and I don't know why you need all local variables. And even if you have bunches of error wired inside all of these structures from sequence (you should also get rid of), you have not connected to the indicators or pass them to the sequence of the sequence. I have a question some of your other codes. With each iteration of the inner loop, you can reset each instrument. It is highly unlikely that you need to reset or initialize the serial port more than once.

    You will need to also get rid of the constant cable outside during the end of the Terminal loop. Using the button abandon, this isn't the right way to stop a program.

    Highlight the performance slows down the program in a little. You may need to add some delay. Run in normal mode and set breakpoints so that most of the code that runs at a normal speed. By the process of elimination, you will finally find the area problem.

    p.s. These are Keithley instruments, you should really try the drivers that are available.

  • PCMCIA card as a serial port RS232 on Satellite Pro 4200

    I think to use a PCMCIA card as a serial RS232 port. The program that I need to use runs under DOS and needs two serial ports. My question is that I need to run the program and the serial port to be recognized by the system. I have a satellite pro 4200 laptop PC series.

    Thank you

    Why on Earth if you want that?
    Your laptop computer with a serial port doesn't have it?

    Well for the serial ports are standard supported on Windows. In a back box that should be no problem.

    But pure back could be a problem.
    I guess you must also BACK drivers for your PCMCIA card...

    You should still be able to read and write objects while it is configured as a T30, but you would need to write a program of IEC which reacts to changes in your variables.  I just did a project with a positioning more comms, and it was some time ago.  My HMI would send '2O 1901.1 =' to define a position and ' $2O 6103CR "to move to the position.  Note the space, and the Czech Republic is a carriage return.  Unfortunately, Parker US doesn't have much experience with the communcations for this product, and the documentation is poor.  You can call technical support of Parker in California.  Rich Rittis would be your best bet to get answers on it.

  • USB RS232 "is connected Port" "invalid property value".

    I'm quite new to this so if all the below is not clear or needs more explanation Let me know and I will try to provide information.

    I'm trying to integrate a device in my LabView program. Of its guides, that I could find on the site OR mentioned most NI MAX goes first and then working them down. My camera is an RS232 port, so I connected via a USB converter, and I know that I'm looking at the right port (COM5) to look at the section "manage devices" on the control panel.

    All series settings are set up properly, I would say (the user manual ishere, with 17 being the party and my setup herepage). I tried to test commands, he gave me on the input/output section, but constantly came up with the error "VISA: (Hex 0xBFFF0015) timeout expired before the operation is complete." Initially, I thought I entered orders incorrectly, I find instructions in the manual that is confused, especially compared to the things other users have posted on orders ('\r' and '\n' instead of what I am told to write, but I agree that mine are not always literal characters).

    But when I went back to "Display attributes" connected "East Port" final attribute has an error with the "invalid property value" and the warning Hex 0xBFFF001Derror. Because of my inexperience with all this, I don't know where to start really trying to solve this problem, or what measures are in place, I need to do to start working properly.

    All advice is appreciated. Thank you

    The property "is connected" is only for devices of NOR so if you have another brand of converter, you would ignore the error.

  • DASYlab RS232 analysis need help

    Hi, I'm running DASYlab 13 and have implemented an RS232 input with a single channel (0) for a USB sensor which can be read normally via the COM port (port COM 13 in this case, to 115200 8 - N - 1.  I can read very well with the RS232 monitor data, I have a problem with the analysis of the data using the format in the "Measurement data Format" field of the configuration input RS232 in order to get data to display box using the meter digital, recorder, etc..

    To get the data from the probe (apart from DASYlab) I can close DASYlab (which closes the COM port) and issue a command to the sensor from the command prompt in a terminal program: B followed by the Enter key.  For example, "B\r\n" (without the quotes).

    The sensor reacts with 'AA 3 b xx xx xx xx' hex, where "AA 3 b" is a header, and x is the data.  Data format an INT32 (IEEE 754).  However, apparently so he can convert correctly with a converter to int32, France must be reversed.  I.e. If the sensor reports data as 12 34 56 78 (it is a data point made), I have to change to get what I expect as output for 78 56 34 12.  So, I'm not a Data Format to measure '2 x f' or '2 x fy' because neither one takes into account the reverse bytes format.

    How can I analyze the data, so I ignore the two-byte header (that would be x 2 or x 4?) and to reverse the order of data byte, so that the display on the digital output is correct?  I have tried all sorts of things, looked in the help files, forums, etc. and a short entry.  I am a novice user of DASYlab, so I don't know how to do the script, and I don't understand why there are several channels in each RS232 input.  I think that they allow to separate the data of a 'package' of RS232 in the individualized data points, but strings do not appear in the examples I've seen, to allow you to reorganize the data... e i. using my previous example, 12 may enter the channel 0, 34 can enter channel 1, etc., but I can't put 78 in channel 0 , 56 in channel 1, etc.  In addition, I do not understand how the data in the channels of result in the output that is displayed on the output (meter either digital, etc.).

    DASYlab1.png image shows a screenshot of my setup.  You can see the COM port monitor and the release of data by the sensor.  In this case it's 3 b 74 94 62 41 hexagonal AA.  Removing the header and reverse bytes give me 41 62 94 74 hexagonal, which is 14.16 when I convert it with http://www.h-schmidt.net/FloatConverter/IEEE754.html.  This reading (after manipulation) is correct.  However, with a '2 x f' measurement data Format parameter I get 00000000000000000000000000001110 on digital playback, which does not match anything significant.

    Your help is very appreciated.

    Thank you

    If you configure the analysis chain to assume a fixed length, then Yes, this is an expected error.

    Often, we can compensate for chains of variable length using line end or the end of data point delimiter... is the analysis of flexible length for an ASCII string. With the delimiter, we always end up at the end of the line, starting on the following.

    Always at the beginning of the anchor chain is to use a search string, if the data always starts with 3 b AA, you could try a search string to use it...

    l '\xAA \x3B '.

    You must the \x notr is hexagonal. Note also that we are not them jumping with 2 x more, but looking for them. This should keep anchored so that you get a bad data point periodically, but of legal data points are fine.

Maybe you are looking for
