Stopping the service doesn't appear to make any difference.

Thanks for all your help Christo. I've just about run out of steam for sigrok. I was thinking getting the Fluke 45 DMM working would be a simple matter. And later I would try to contribute back by getting my Agilent scope (something that's not part of sigrok yet) working. But after all this investment in time it looks like we're getting no where. Maybe I'll try again in the fall. We'll see.

-thanks.

Hi Stuart,

One guess is that modem manager is probing the serial port[1], messing up the device state.
Test after disabling modem manager with:
sudo systemctl stop NetworkManager.service

Hope this helps...

    Hi Christo,

    Well, this is getting interesting:

     > ./sigrok-cli --driver
    fluke-45:conn=/dev/ttyUSB0:serialcomm=9600/8n1 --scan
     > The following devices were found:
     > FLUKE [S/N: 6123456] with 2 channels: P1 P2

    And turning on logging and setting it to 5 have pushed out and endless
    stream of events.  I'll look at this in more detail later, but after
    failing a transaction where sigrok sent "*IDN?" closing and re-opening
    the ttyUSB0 port, sigrok endlessly sends out "FUNC1?", "AUTO?", "FUNC2"
    & "AUTO?".  The repeats these 4 commands endlessly.
