Jim, I am open to all the suggestions. Just looked at the Prologix site, The usb interface is interesting, also the Ethernet device looks cool. I have a wireless network here with about 10 devices on it.
Would I be able to monitor, say the 5370,b with TL running and maybe my HP3586 Selective level meter from a wireless laptop Using the proper software? This sounds like an interesting way to go. I have to read up on the prologix more. Paul A. Cianciolo W1VLF http://www.rescueelectronics.com/ Our business computer network is powered exclusively by solar and wind power.

That whole ISA/EISA/PCI bus thing is such a pain. Given USB/Ethernet, Prologix has nice GPIB interfaces. NI and Agilent also have them. brand new, the latter cost more, but perhaps they show up used at lower prices. _______________________________________________ time-nuts mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe, go to https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts and follow the instructions there. _______________________________________________ time-nuts mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe, go to https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts and follow the instructions there.
