Hello,
I am having trouble running the excel VBA script that came with the SDK. The function ps3000aOpenUnit always returns 0. I have 32 bit excel on a 64 bit system. I am running ps3000aV2. The dll's are in the syswow64 folder.
One theory, I do not have admin rights on my system. My user rights are Power User. Could this be limiting port access through the VBA script?
unit not opened error
Re: unit not opened error
That would be the correct return code if the call is successful, PICO_STATUS_OK, any other value would indicate an error.

Re: unit not opened error
Hello,
I have the same error message "Unit not opened" when running ps2000a.xls
My configuration Picoscope 2205A, PicoSDK 10.6.10.22, Windows 7 / 64 bits, Excel 2007 / 32 bits
The 3 necessary dll's are in the right place and I have checked that Picoscope 6 is not running when running Excel macro.
Function ps2000aOpenUnit returns handle=0 and so the error message appears.
How to solve this problem ?

Re: unit not opened error
You need to use the 2000 drivers and excel example, not the 2000a ones, even though you have a 2205a device.

Re: unit not opened error
Thanks for useful reply. I had not noticed the need to use 2000 drivers instead of 2000a
I can now go further on.
