🔒 PyVISA - GPIB Decies not found

[frank jay]

I am trying to communicate with one of the PCI to GPIB card present in the PC to a device. But my Pyvisa is not able to find the GPIB card in the PC. it only see a different card . I do have all the necessary drivers installed. I can see my GPIB card from the NI Max software.

code: import pyvisa

def list_devices():
try:
# Explicitly specify the backend and VISA library path
rm = pyvisa.ResourceManager('C:\Windows\system32\visa32.dll')

    # List available resources
    resources = rm.list_resources()

    if not resources:
        print("No devices found.")
    else:
        print("Available devices:")
        for idx, resource in enumerate(resources, start=1):
            print(f"{idx}. {resource}")

except pyvisa.errors.VisaIOError as e:
    print(f"An error occurred: {e}")

if name == "main":
list_devices()

output:

Available devices:

1. ASRL3::INSTR

ANy help is highly appriciated.
