Forgive me if, as a working engineer, I take "not possible" as a challange to at least understand more!
Clearly, the Analyzer utility does exactly this. Given the necessary information, there is no reason why my code could not.
Where can I go from here, to learn what I need?
How does the Plus hardware differ from the non-Plus? Are there undocumented hooks in the NI 488.2 drivers or libraries
to access the added functions, or is all the work done in-line, within Analyzer?
How much can be done with the "standard" calls? It appears that NI-Spy could come close to what I need (monitoring,
capturing, and time-tagging traffic on a GPIB bus, without directly participating in the communication with my interface.)
Since Spy runs on the non-Plus inter
faces, does it also use the basic function calls?
Let's try to keep the communication open!
