HI Group,
Just wondering if anyone has seen schematics for this series of logic
analysers/scopes and if anyone has any info on programming these units.
What OS do they run? Can one write programs for them? Which
compiler/libraries etc
Basing my replies on what's available for the 16500 and 165x series:
1) Don't think you'll find schematics, they may have existed only as
internal documents never to be released. Tektronix did about the same
thing with some of their later units.
Programming, well, you have access to the functions over IEEE-488,
RS-232 or network if so equipped. Writing a program specifically for
it and running that program, I haven't heard of such. Would be
interesting though.
The 16500 and 165X run a version of HP Unix, IIRC. Whatever they run,
it's likely to be custom.
You'd be more likely to grab data on the fly, and post process it in
another computer with resources you can actually get to.
That'll be what I'll do.
Harvey
Thanks
