[time-nuts] Tektronix FCA3103 and TimeLab

Hello all,

I searched the old time-nuts archives for TimeLab connection issues with 
Tektronix FCA3xxx or Pendulum CNT9x counters.
There are some infos but I am not able to get mine running with TimeLab.
Somewhere here I read that Tom (van Baak) has a FCA3x counter running 
with TimeLab, but I am not sure and I do not find
the appropriate posting.
It would be great if someone can give me some configuration tips how to 
set TimeLab for a FCA3101 counter. I am connecting
it with a Prologix LAN GPIB Adapter. With a HP53132A counter it was 
running very successful. But unfortunately the HP is no
longer available.
The Prologix has the actual firmware inside, the TimeLab is actual 1.37 
beta and the FCA3103 also is on state of the art.
I tried native and compatible (HP 531xx) mode but in neither way there 
are coming data into my computer.
The Prologix LAN adapter is okay.

Any help is welcome. Thanks
