GPIB-USB-A-- NI488.2 2.0

Installing a GPIB-USB-A, installs okay and the NI 488.2 2.0 software
installs
okay. The NI488.2
"Add GPIB Hardware" and
"Getting Started Wizard" both find and detect the GPIB-USB-A hardware and
it
passes the tests.
But MAX does not find it or recognize it in the "Devices and Interfaces:
Section of MAX.
Refresh does not find it either.
OS: Windows XP Professinal
This is on a new DELL 8250 computer with 2 USB ports on back and two on
front.
I have it plugged into one of the front USB ports. Could that be a problem?

Hi,
Try this: go to Tools >> Install Legacy Driver Support. This seems strange but it should update the installed drivers. If this fails, there are some good suggestins at this thread:

Windows 7 64bit has an MTP USB Device Failed error message when I attach my Ipad1

I keep getting an MTP USB Device Failed error message when I plug in my USB cable into my Ipad1. Can someone help?

This is NOT resolved. The "Upper..."Key in the registry editor doesn't exist as you can see below in the image I am providing. This is still an OUTSTANDING issue, can someone please help with resolving this issue, super frustrating.
This is not just an iPAD issue, I get the same problem with my iPhone as well, both (iPhone and iPad) have the latest iOS 6.1.3 installed as well.

Can I use a USB hub to connect to multiple USB ports from one GPIB-USB-HS?

I have one instrument which has a GPIB-USB-HS connected and the USB cable is connected to a USB hub. Can I have multiple PCs to connect using USB hub at their respective USB ports? If so, how many PCs can I connect using the USB cable?
I have downloaded the latest NI-VISA from the website.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

You would first need a hub that allows you to switch between multiple pc's and then only one pc at a time would be connected and in control.
When you buy this special type of hub, one of the specs is how many pc connections it has.

What a load of hogwash.
I've just had this error come up - WITH NO CHANGE OTHER THAN UPGRADE OF IPHONE 4 TO IOS 5.1.1.
(running iTunes 10.6.1.7 on 64 Win7)
Powered phone off, and back on again - same error... Haven't had to reinstall windows in a few years - maybe iTunes is now the least stable software in my collection - Might have to try the two (button) salute to Apple...
Error on device "MTP USB Device";

GPIB-USB-B device not recognized by Windows XP

I am using an HP Compaq nx9010 notebook with Windows XP Pro. When I plug in the the GPIB-USB-B, I get an error message telling me that 'The Device has not been Recognized'. I hjave followed all the instructions and have updated the bios and drivers of the notebook, but to no avail. I have uninstalled and reinstaleld the drivers several times to no effect. I have also tried running the device on an older Windows 98 PC, but the interface is not recognized there either! Is it broken?

Hi Andrew,
It's Pete from NIUK Tech. support department here. From what you've described it does sound like there may be something wrong with your product.
Firstly, I would just like to make a couple of checks to make sure. If it is broken, we can then organise for it to be repaired/replaced.
1. Has the GPIB-USB-B ever been working. i.e. how long have you had it, was it working when you got and has since stopped working or has it never worked.
2. Are you plugging in the GPIB-USB-B before the computer is switched on. This shouldn't actually matter as it is a plug and play device. It would just be useful to know if it works when you switch the computer on with the device plugged in.
3. I know you've tried it on a couple of computers with differen
t operating systems, have you also tried different USB plug and play devices on the same USB port as your plugging this device into.
These questions are just to cover all the bases before we send it back to the factory for repair. If we do need to RMA the device then I will need to speak to you in person to get some more details. If and when this is needed, it would probably be easier for you to either give me your e-mail address or phone into the department and ask for me.
Anyway, if you get back to me with the answers to these questions then we can carry on from there.

Use GPIB-USB-HS in place of HP Comm Card (82335)?

Recently had one of my engineers use an old computer, and found it is having hard drive issues. I got the old PC back up and running, but I think that this is a good time to try and upgrade the hardware/software.
Old Computer:
Running Windows 95
Using a HP Communications Card (GPIB) model 82335A
The HP card then connects to a HP 8751A Network Analyzer
This runs software called HP Instrument Basic (iBasic), and has several tests saved
New Computer that I want to upgrade
Basic Desktop PC running Windows 7 32 bit
I have a NI - GPIB-USB-HS cord, from a different testing machine, that I want to use to connect to the same analyzer
With the new computer and the NI cord, I can run the iBasic software, and the test loads, but errors when it runs.
In the code it gives the error message on the line that says "ON TIMEOUT Scode,3" then GOTO the LINE that prints the error
I have installed the drivers for the NI GPIB cord, and even tried installing/testing the Agilent library Suite.
I'm looking for any ideas that someone may have to point me in the right direction, since I am currently stuck.
Thanks

You really need to be talking to agilent about a GPIB controller (please don't call it a chord) to find one of their devices that is compatible with your old software. Agilent and NI GPIB functions are not compatible at the low level.You would be able to swap only if the code used the portable VISA functions.

What is the recommended length of the cable in between the GPIB instrument and GPIB-USB card.

hi,
we are planning to use GPIB-USB Controller in our application by replacing the existing GPIB-PCI controller. Our GPIB instrument doesn't have the standard IEEE GPIB Connector. So, we will have to connect one more cable in between GPIB-USB controller and the GPIB Instrument. I just want to know what is the recommended lenth of the cable that can be connected in between the GPIB instrument and the GPIB-USB card. Could anybody please help me?
Thanks,
Rajaram

Page 730 in the 2001 catalog gives detailed cabling requirements for the GPIB bus. It's usually best to keep the length 2meters or less.

I would like to know a question regarding interfacing with a Yokogowa WT130 utilizing a NI GPIB-USB-HS is possible in Dasy Lab

I have a Yokogowa WT130 power analyzer and I would like to use this to communicate to DASY Lab. The Yokogowa utilizes IEEE 488 communication and I was thinking of using the NI GPIB-USB-HS to connect the Yokogowa to the computer. I do know that DASY Lab is capable of utilizing IEEE 488 but I am confused on if I would neede a seperate driver for the Yokogowa or if the driver for the NI GPIB-USB-HS would allow communication. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

backhausr1,
I would recommend asking this in the DASYLab forum, which can be found here: http://forums.ni.com/t5/DASYLab/bd-p/50

GPIB-USB-HS//how to use in VC++?

I have a GPIB-USB-HS,and want to use in VC++ with windows xp.
question: I do not fine that are .h /.dll/.lib file.and who can give me??
email;[email protected]
thanks

Hi again,
As you can see in the image included, I think I´m doing something wrong in the simulation.
First of all I have included the NI USB-6001 device, but an exclamation icon apeared --> ¿Is this correct?
Then I simulate with the "Test panel" an analog signal in the first channel "Dev1/ai0".
At least, I extract "DAQmx Global Channel" from this first signal (Dev1/ai0), and taken to a string visualizator.
I think It should be very simple to manage this variables... Would you mind to help me again?
Thank you.

GPIB-USB libraries that need to be included with Installer

Hi,
I need to make a small application executable, and the application needs to communicate with a power supply over a GPIB-USB-B connection. MAX can communicate with the power supply on this PC, and the second PC that I have my Base LabVIEW 7.1 installed on runs the executable application successfully. When I try to run the executable on the first PC, however, the process hangs. I included an Installer in the original executable build for the first PC, and in this build all the options under LavVIEW Run-Time Engine were checked (although LabVIEW RT Support wasn't available for checking.) However, none of the other options (Remote Panel License Support, Serial Port Support, Port I/O Support, and Hardware Configuration) are checked because I didn't think that I needed any of these for the basic GPIB communication I'm performing (just VISA Open, Read, and Write). Do you have any idea which of these libraries I need to include in the Installer to make this work? Or is there some other problem I'm not thinking of?
Thanks,
Mark

What makes the situation odd is that MAX was capable of communicating with the device, but my application was not. In the interest of making it work, I stuck a spare license of Base LabVIEW onto the PC, and then the application (even the compiled, executable one) worked fine. So clearly something wasn't loaded along with the GPIB-USB-B drivers (or my application installer) that WAS loaded by the full installation of LabVIEW. But, again, the oddness of the situation stems from the fact that before loading the full LabVIEW, MAX (loaded by the GPIB-USB drivers) could communicate fine with the device. This set of circumstances doesn't make any sense to me, but maybe someone else can come up with something.
The PC is a W2K box, and I assume whatever driver information that came in the installer and the GPIB-USB drivers has been overwritten by the full LabVIEW that's since been installed on the machine. I didn't actually oversee the installation of the GPIB-USB drivers, so it's possible the engineer who did that put the card into some odd state--it's also possible he didn't reboot after the driver installation. If the resources come free I'd like to clear out the machine and start fresh and recreate the sequence of events to see if I get the same result. I wouldn't be surprised if the problem stemmed from issues in the driver installation. But I want to hear if anyone's been in a situation like this before I go and do everything over again.
Thanks for your help, and for the additional installer information,
Mark

Hi,
Multiple files are required for the proer fnctioning of any of our GPIB products. Unfortunatly the installation is not as simple as copying a single file over. If you wish to make the installer silent, i believe this is entirely possible in a fashion similar to the details given at http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/websearch/0730A66245E6808086256CA8006E2183?OpenDocument.

Obsolete GPIB-USB-A problem again

Hi , all, sorry to bother you but I really do not know how to deal with this,
I have a obsolete GPIB-USB-A cable to connect with an instrument,
this morning I installed NI488.2 V2.2 on WinXP, it works, the instrument responds to my commands.
This afternoon I installed labview 2012, then the GPIB explorer is reporting error,
I can no more communicate with the instrument!
I think there might be some newer versions automatically included in LV2012, which might not be suitable for the obsolete GPIB-USB-A,
so I re install NI488.2 V2.2, it is still reporting error.
I checked the VISA version is 3.0.1,
What is the problem? Is that VISA version not compatible with LV2012?

Hi Julia2013,
Based on this chart: http://www.ni.com/white-paper/5326/en/, GPIB_USB_A is compatible with NI 488.2 Ver 2.2. However, based on this link: http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/2BFCEE471BECB95F862574020059117E, NI 488.2 Ver 2.2 is compatible with LabVIEW 6.1, 7.0 and 7.1. Therefore, to begin with, I believe that the NI 488.2 Ver 2.2 is not compatible with LabVIEW 2012
Based on this link: http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/CF4279A34F855AB186257B1F00003B82, you'll notice that NI VISA 5.2, 5.3 and 5.4 are the only VISA versions that are compatible with LabVIEW 2012.
Therefore in summary, GPIB-USB-A is not compatible with LabVIEW 2012. Based on the first link I have mentioned, GPIB-USB-B and GPIB-USB-HS
uses NI 488.2 Ver. 3.1.1 which is compatible with the LabVIEW 2012 and thus is compatible with the VISA ver 5.2, 5.3 and 5.4.
Hope it answers your enquiry.
Warmest regards,

Can't see boards in a VXI chassis connected via VXI-MXI-2 cards using a GPIB-USB adapter

I'm working on a system that has two VXI enclosures, and the two are bridged via VXI-MXI-2 boards in each of them. The first one has a GPIB-VXI board in slot 0, and I have a Winodows XP computer connected to that with a GPIB-USB-HS adapter. The problem is that I cannot see any of the boards in the second chassis over GPIB in the Measurement & Automation Explorer. As far as I can tell, everything is configured correctly; the VXI-MXI-2 board in the first chassis is in the last slot and has a logical address of 126, and the VXI-MXI-2 board in the second chassis is in slot 0 and has a logical address of 127. To make things even more confusing, if I put a VXI PC in slot 0 of the first chassis, it seems to see everything without any problems. Do you have any idea why this might be happening? I'm pretty new to working with these systems, so I might be missing something obvious. Thanks in advance.

Nevermind that -- I just discovered that you can't bridge two VXI chassis with VXI-MXI-2 boards if you're using a GPIB-VXI board as the controller. So, I'll just have to find another way to accomplish what I need to do.
