fluke 8508a cut decimal digits

[ahem]

Hello everyone,

i have problem with data read on fluke 8508a. I have installed fluke drivers, visa 3.2 driver on labview 2009. When reading data from fluke multimeter it cuts decimal digits off. For example if i have 10.225V on multimeter it shows me just 10V on labview VI.

Thanks in advance,
Nedeljko!

Hi ahem,

change your computer to use the point as decimal separator and everything should be fine!

Most instrument drivers expect "English" regional settings using the point as decimal separator while not checking for it.

All measurement devices use the point. When your computer doesn't use the point, but a comma instead you have to change either your computer settings or the instrument driver…
