Patrick,
Prologix GPIB-USB controller does not work as a GPIB bus sniffer. In DEVICE
mode the controller reads the bus only if it has previously been addressed
as a listener.
Regards,
Abdul

Hi Everyone
Thanks to all for helping me with my last post. I am now reading with my
Prologix device.
I am just not sure that I am reading everything. I am trying to monitor
the communication between a closed source App and some GPIB devices.
After I set up imported and set up serial with PySerial I tried this:
ser.write("++mode0\r\n")
x=1
def read3():
while(x==1):
print ser.read(1000)
I also tried print ser.readline()
I read the "ID" command sent out by the software but I could not read
the response. Am I reading all the addresses with this set up or just
one? Does anyone have some thoughts on why I don't read the response?
Thanks yet again in advance-patrick
