Experimental Physics and Industrial Control System
Since you are using a MOXA device I assume the hardware is RS-232? If so I would expect your startup command file to be setting the input and output terminators, but I don't see that in your command script? That could explain this error:

It appears to have sent the IDN? command, but not received a response. That could well be because you have not set the terminators.

Unfortunately, I had to give up here due to lack of time. I couldn't communicate
with this Keithley IP-asyn-driver.
I am now on Streamdevice
(Danke Christoph)
“
not sure what driver you are trying to use, but you can also use the
Streamdevice support from LBNL:
https://epics.anl.gov/download/modules/index.php
https://epics.anl.gov/download/modules/Keithley6487-1.1.tar.gz
the Keithley 6485 is basically a Keithley 6487 with fewer functionality
(no limit Tests and Voltage source). Most commands are supported by the
6485 as well.
It's used like any other Streamdevice support.
Best regards,
Christoph

Gruss,
Heinz
