[SOLVED] NI MAX does not see my Siglent SPD3303
« on: August 25, 2022, 05:44:54 pm »
Hi,
I'm unable to connect to the PSU using NI MAX. Other Siglent devices (DMM, scope, AWG) are showing... Not the PSU. Entering its IP by hand has no effect.
I can control the PSU using EasyPower. I can ping it.
But no luck with NI MAX.

DHCP + static lease so the IP is always the same.

unlocked SPD3303X-E (=SPD3303X)
hardware : v3.0
firmware : SPD3303X V1.01.01.02.07R2

What am I doing wrong ?

If rolled back to the X-E version does the problem still remain ?

I reverted the PSU to X-E, re-upgraded to 1.01.01.0.2.07R2 (X-E firmware version) : it does not make any difference. Tested from two computers.
I also tried with another IP I defined on the device rather than assigned by the DHCP. Still no PSU on the NI utility even when trying to define it manually : "Could not open a VISA session to 'TCPIP0:nnnnnn blah blah'"
The DHCP (a PiHole) works properly. When validating the DHCP option on the PSU, I can see the IP changing for the static lease I defined in the DHCP.
I can telnet using port 4025 (seen here : https://www.eevblog.com/forum/testgear/spd3303x-e-scpi-interface-issues/), I get a beep when connecting, but have no echo so I don't see what I type.

[EDIT] problem solved !
I wasn't properly entering the parameters. In the dialog box, do not enter information in the "LAN Device Name". I was entering the Hostname in this field !
So, entering the IP or the hostname in the first field, and letting the second one alone is the right thing to do. RTFDI ! Read The F* Dialog Instructions !
