-## Common Issues & Troubleshooting
-
-This section covers the most common issues encountered when using PICA.
-
-### 1. VISA Timeout Error or Resource Not Found
-
-This is the most frequent issue and usually indicates a problem with the connection between the computer and the instrument. Follow these steps to resolve it:
-
-1.  **Check Physical Connections:** Ensure all cables (GPIB, USB, Ethernet) are securely connected to both the instrument and the computer.
-2.  **Use the VISA Scanner:** Run the **VISA Instrument Scanner** utility from the PICA launcher.
-    *   If the instrument appears in the list, the connection is working. Note the correct VISA address.
-    *   If the instrument does **not** appear, PICA cannot see it. Proceed to the next steps.
-3.  **Power Cycle the Instrument:** Turn the instrument off, wait a few seconds, and turn it back on. This can often resolve temporary communication hangs.
-4.  **Restart the Computer:** If the problem persists, a full restart can resolve driver or backend issues.
-    *   Shut down the computer completely, leaving the instrument turned off.
-    *   Start the computer.
-    *   Once the system is fully booted, run the PICA VISA scanner.
-    *   Turn on the instrument.
-5.  **Check Drivers and Communication Mode:**
-    *   Ensure you have the correct VISA backend installed (see [Pre-requisites](#pre-requisites-the-visa-driver-catch-22)).
-    *   If using a different communication interface (e.g., switching from GPIB to USB), verify that the necessary drivers are installed and that the instrument is configured for that mode.
