Troubleshooting Error Messages
If
ibtsta
fails, the program generates common error messages that appear
on your screen. These error messages explain what went wrong when you
ran
ibtsta
and describe how you can correct the problem. For example, the
following message might appear on your screen if you forgot to disconnect
all your GPIB cables:
The fact that the ENOL error was not received when expected
indicates the possible presence of other devices on the bus.
Please disconnect ALL GPIB cables from the GPIB board, then
run this test again.
If you still are unable to run
ibtsta
and/or
ibtstb
successfully after you follow
the recommended actions from the error messages, contact National Instruments.
