the ISA pc of our lab, -to which an hpib card was fitted to connect an Agilent UV-VIS spectrophotometer- has crashed .
Since new pcs don't come with ISA slots,,the instrument has become unusable. I tried to connect the spectro by KUSB488 but though it is returning its address in VB6, no other response to common gpib commands are available from it like "IDN etc.
I tried with visa in VB6 but still no responce.Please advice
