GPIB Installation/Configuration Troubleshooter

1. Be sure that you installed the GPIB-ENET on the network on the same subnet as your computer and connected the power cable.
   
   
2. Do you have an available IP address?
   
   
3. Go to Start » Programs » National Instruments » NI-488.2 and run the Add GPIB Hardware Wizard.
   
   
4. In the Add GPIB Hardware Wizard select GPIB-ENET, as shown below:
   
   

   

   
   
5. Click Next. This will build a driver database and add the GPIB-ENET to your system. When this is done, click Finish.
   
   
6. Open the Measurement & Automation Explorer (MAX). When MAX is loaded, refresh by going to View » Refresh, or by pressing F5. This will force MAX to look for any new hardware that you have installed, so that your GPIB-ENET will appear in the Devices and Interfaces folder.
   
   
7. Expand the Devices and Interfaces folder and select your GPIB-ENET controller from the list of hardware.
   
   
8. At this point you may assign an IP address to your GPIB-ENET or you may setup a connection to a GPIB-ENET that already has an IP address.
   
   
9. You are now ready to connect instruments to the GPIB-ENET and communicate with them. See the Introduction to the Interactive Control (IBIC) page for more information.
