You need to test the RS-232 port. I think that info is in the 9010A Service
manual, you can either type it in or grab that from the FTP site... check at
the bottom of this email for info on how to get there...<br>

<font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Arial'>Hey
all. First time posting to this list. I haven't seen many posts recently, but I
am starting to use a Fluke 9010A. I've been spending a lot of time reading the
manuals, but of course I'm also playing with the Fluke to get some &quot;hands
on&quot; experience. I'm trying to write a simple &quot;Hello World&quot; type
of program to make sure my computer and Fluke are set up correctly and
communicating. </span></font><br>
&nbsp;<br>
<font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Arial'>I'm
using the RKSIC program and believe that I have the COM port settings matching
the fluke settings. I have compiled my simple program and I am attempting to
load the programmer. RKSIC says to press the &quot;AUX I/F&quot; ,
&quot;READ&quot;, &quot;YES.&quot; When I press the AUX I/F button, I get a
message saying &quot;NO IO INFO.&quot; Is this correct? I wasn't able to successfully
program the unit. When I follow the instructions from the RKSIC program, I end
up with a &quot;9000A REMOTE MODE ERR091.&quot; It seems like the Fluke isn't
set up to receive the program correctly. I need to confirm that the pinouts of
the serial cable are correct (I believe they are). My firmware version is 2.0,
displayed on boot up. This may be a little old. (I'm worried that the
documentation won't match the messages I see.)</span></font><br>
&nbsp;<br>
<font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Arial'>Am I
sending the program correctly? Or do I need to set up something else on the Fluke?
</span></font><br>
&nbsp;<br>
<font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Arial'>Thanks
in advance. I'm hoping to spend more time with it this weekend using the 6502
pod.</span></font><br>
