Re: [time-nuts] FLUKE PM6680B Counter Time View software for the PC
As you can read here: http://www.ke5fx.com/timelab/readme.htm on version 1.010 as of March 2012 the support for the PM6680 was added, so you don't need to use talk-only mode.

> Can anyone point me to a source for the subject software ? Stan, The source code is not available as far as I know. The binary is shipped if you order that option with your counter from Fluke or Pendulum. It's key'ed so it can't be shared or re-sold. It's a reasonable tool, works with native USB, but I'd suggest using TimeLab over serial or GPIB instead give the 1.#INF cost and feature ratio. /tvb ___ time-nuts mailing list -- time-nuts@febo.com To unsubscribe, go to https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts and follow the instructions there.
Re: [time-nuts] FLUKE PM6680B Counter Time View software for the PC
Hello A.B., Actually TimeLab is collecting data right now and I am quite happy with it. I will be even happier when the PM6680B arrives on Tuesday and TimeLab can drive it directly without the "talk only" function I am currently using. The FLUKE TimeView is only an alternative, whose capabilities I hope to experience. I am currently using a HP5384A in talk only mode (HPIB address 31) with TimeLab to look at some OCXOs. A T'Bolt GPS/DO provides the 10 MHz reference. Now I better understand why there is a rubber gasket under the adjustment screw cover on the hermetically sealed cans of the OCXO. I can see the barometric pressure changes on frequency using TimeLab, at E-10 levels. Maybe the supposed drift due to the atmospheric pressure is due to the propagation of the GPS signals that can effect the 10MHz reference ?? May have to go back to a Rb reference to verify. It is also interesting to see how "aging drift" improves with time under power. I had been holding out for a HP 53132A counter but I am a frugal Yankee and I settled on the PM6680B for about 25% of the cost of a HP 53132A. Waiting for FedEx...

Timelab works nicely with my Fluke PM6690, either with Prologix GPIB-USB adapter or straight USB.
