agilent DSO610A VI error in string scan

[Sauravphotonics]

I am using VI of agilent 6000 series to extract data from Oscilloscope and being a novice user I am facing some difficulties. Finally, instead of writing my own VI I am using labview plug and play drivers which works in starting of program but after sometime I get this error attached here. I am also attaching the corresponding VI. Can anyone please help me with it?

Hi Saurav,

those "plug and play" drivers usually are meant as a "suggestion". In my experience to tend to fail in one point or the other…

The error says: you received some data, but it is not in the expected format (as described by the format string of the ScanFromString function). Most often this may occur when the system's regional settings specify a different decimal separator than is used when programming your driver VIs. Can you verify this?

This might be a nice opportunity to learn about debugging in LabVIEW using probes, highlighting, breakpoints etc.!

And btw: welcome to the forum!
