Regarding the meter that only returns values, could it be that the ‘talk only’ switch is set and therefore the instrument is not accepting commands.
As was mentioned earlier, it could simply be a dip switch setting or the switch needs cleaning - always try the simple stuff first...
Hope it helps.

Could be, but I'd try some deoxit on the connectors first, especially
if it hasn't been used in a while.
