The Software does not find the GPIB0

Question

The software does not find the GPIB0. The error message is as follows: HDI Interface GPIB0 not available Device Handler ESS is changed into virtual mode. We use a NI USB-IEEE488 interface, and in the measurement and automation program from NI we can see the interface as GPIB0. Other devices that use other software work ok.

Answer

The 16 bit NI driver is not installed correctly.
