I have been considering the purchase of an HP 1651D Logic
Analyzer (very similar to 1650A/D/G, 1651A models), which
is quite sophisticated, allowing programmable labeling of
channels, "reverse assembly" (aka disassembly), etc. Alas,
these devices have no internal storage or floppy, and rely
on the HP-IB and HP-IL interfaces to store setup info on a
remote floppy/computer.
My question is: Is the HP 9114A/B adequate for use as the
external storage device with these logic alalyzers? Is the
HP-41CX (my only HP-IL controller) adequate to save/restore
HP 1651D setup info with the HP 9114? Has anyone got
experience using the HP 1651D family with HP-IL? I presume
the vast majority of users would have connected to an HP-IB
drive, such as the HP 9122, but since I have no HP-IB HW,
I'm curious about the utility of the HP-IL option.
Thanks for any help or tips.
