Using HPIL/RS232 converter and PC Message #1 Posted by Harold Climer on 18 May 2003, 11:10 a.m. I have just aquired a HP IL to RS232 converter. Are there any programs for the 41 and PC to allow one to talk back and forth to each other? Is this capibility built into the converter? I am also thinking of connecting my 41 to a Vernier Universal Lab Inteface and taking temperatur or other type of measurments.

If all you want is to interface to Vernier equipment, you might be ahead to get a (voice of doom here) TI-8x series calc. Vernier equipment can interface directly to these TI calcs. I think all you need extra is a $5 cable.
