Just downloaded the most recent version of NI-488.2 version 2.5 off the NI website. It downloaded/unzipped/installed without any apparent issue. The "Devices and Interfaces - Measurement & Automation Explorer shows several different applications in the software tree, but does not recognize either of the two HP-IB interfaces that are installed/attached: - USB to HPIB (Agilent 82357A) - PCI to HPIB (HP 82350) ---------------- I may be wrong, not unknown:-), but I've always believed that NI-488.2 only recognises NI interfaces. Other interfaces I've used, such as those from CEC, that do claim NI compatibility have not been recognised and NI-488.2 will even detect the CEC software as being an alternative copy and require its removal before proceeding with its own install. If I remember correctly, CEC, now Measurement Computing, do claim that their software will recognise NI interfaces and offer this as a way of getting their interfaces and those from NI installed on the same PC, with both then operating under Labview, but I've found it easier just to stick with NI. Agilent's equivalent software for HP interfaces is their IO Libraries Suite, also free to download. regards Nigel GM8PZR _______________________________________________ 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.
