Ah well. For a few quid under ?140, it's still a steal. Especially seeing as
I got a full set of probes. With HP LAs, documentation and software can
generally be tracked down; probes tend to be rare and expensive (especially
those blasted woven cables).
Finding parts for HP 16500 series analyzer at reasonable prices
shouldn't be a problem for quite a while, at least in the US.
Did your 16500B come with the Ethernet interface, 16500L or 16500H ?
If it did you can use the FTP server to transfer files, grab screen
shots, and send program commands. You can also use an X Window System
Server to remotely control the mainframe, which is an alternative to
using a local HIL keyboard and mouse if you don't have them.
I have PDFs of most of the 16500 series module manuals, but not the
16530/16531 operating manuals. I have manuals and IA/config file
disks for the 8085 (10304B) and Z-80 (10300B) probes. Anyone have the
manual and IA/config file disk for the 68000/68010 (10311B) probe?
