HI Bob, keep begging mate.... It was never made available. When the product was transferred to Germany for Manufacture, all knowedge was lost. I dont know where you get your info, but I get mine from the designer..... now long since retired. Any drivers that were published.... I wonder as to their usefullness, and what program they were intended to be used with. Non of Schaffners software has ever controlled the NSG in the public domain. Like I said, the RS232 bus was for set up and calibration... BTW, I looked at the site and didnt find drivers... only a reference that they may exist.... As for controlling the various bits... you would be better served getting individual components, or using the system as intended. Or, better yet, gettingt he newer system that does have more user control and is fully compliant to current ( and future ) specs. Best regards,
Derek. ----- Original Message ----- From: Bob Richards <mailto:b...@toprudder.com> To: ieee <mailto:emc-p...@ieee.org> Sent: Friday, August 24, 2007 6:06 AM Subject: Re: Schaffner NSG 2070 Derek, I beg to differ. The User's Manual that I have, chapter 8 Remote Control, states: "The command set is normally not necessary but is, however, available upon request for special applications". http://www.schaffner.uk.com/support/technotes/tn-006.htm This page has drivers available for the internal power meter and signal generator. Obviously, Schaffner felt there was a need to control the device externally. Why would anyone want to bypass the internal firmware?? We have a lot of EMC equipment with internal firmware that can run a test, like EFT and surge generators, but we still use software to control the device since it gives us better control and documentation.

There is no published documentation for use of this port. It's considered proprietary. As the US cal lab for this item, I have access to some, but not all of the commands of the interface, but, I've signed a document saying I won't release them. As you stated, the NSG 2070 is a stand alone piece of equipment with all control software ( firmware) built in. I'm curious why you would want to change that? I hope this helps you, Sincerely, Derek Walton L F Research - ---------------------------------------------------------------- This message is from the IEEE Product Safety Engineering Society emc-pstc discussion list.
