Connection error when using HiSLIP

[ckutlu]

Hi there! Happy user of RsInstrument (and R&S oscilloscopes) here ;). I am trying to use hislip protocol when connecting to our R&S RTO6 oscilloscope.

What I am doing:

rsc = RsInstrument("TCPIP::192.168.0.20::hislip0")

and I am getting:

VisaIOError: VI_ERROR_NSUP_OPER (-1073807257): The given session or object reference does not support this operation.

If I pass explicitly "VxiCapable=False", the error disappears and I can use the instrument as expected. I guess being VXI capable and running on HiSLIP are mutually exclusive, so I'd expect not having to pass this option explicitly.

Hi ckutlu, would you please share the IO Trace of the communication that produces your error?:
VisaIOError: VI_ERROR_NSUP_OPER (-1073807257):

Something is not right, the HiSLIP is VXI-capable, this should work properly with our RTO6. I suspect another issue is in play here. Thanks for using the RsInstrument :-)
