I have a ton of old HP/Agilent equipment for my current project and most of it has GPIB connectivity. It seems like a neat protocol and I also finally got an HP-85 with the serial/GPIB modules which have been on my wishlist for a while. Might try to turn it into a controller for some of the equipment.
- bartvk 6y agoThe protocol isn't too bad but that humongous connector... hoo boy. I think everyone nowadays just hooks it up with those USB-to-GPIB connectors, but the drivers under Linux are often iffy: if you get the wrong one, you need to supply a blob to it, in order to fully boot.
- the_only_law 6y agoI have so many V.35 cables laying around the GPIB feels small.
