You can probably use the QUERY.EXE console application from my GPIB Toolkit
suite to do this. I also include specific example programs for the 5370B
and 5345A counters, so even if QUERY.EXE doesn't work with the 5328A
directly it would probably be easy to adapt. See
for more info on that.
Ultimately you may want to build a program to output CSV (comma-separated
variable) files, but that's just two or three more lines of C code.

Subject: [hp_agilent_equipment] Need logging help with hp 5328a
Hello all,
I have a 5328A counter with the HP-1B option 011 digital I/O init
installed.
I wish to record the frequency output of a oscillator over a long
period of time (several hours to several days) and I need some way to
interface the output from the counter to a PC, and some way to copy
the input to the pc to an excel spreadsheet for data logging, etc.
BTW, I am NOT an engineer, just a ham radio operator trying to get a
stable ransmitter on the air.
Hny Ideas, suggestions would be a great help.
Thanks,
James Hickox, AA5AO
