Hello Time-Nuts, I got an Agilent 82357b USB <-> IEC-Bus adaptor at a ham fest. Now I´m trying to get it to work with TimeLab. I Installed some hundred MB of Keysight software and followed the recipes I found in the web to get the 82357b working with 488.2 applications - basically checking "Enable Keysight GPIB cards for 488 programms" in the Keysight Connection Expert Software. After doing so, the connected devices show up in the "NI Measurement and Automation Explorer", so I guess it´s working to a certain level. But TimeLab doesn´t list any GPIB interfaces. Did anyone have success with this combination? Any insights highly appreciated... Best regards, Matthias

Agilent's NI488.2 compatibility layer seems to work only with 32-bit apps, not 64-bit ones, so you may be able to get it running by modifying your Windows shortcut to run timelab.exe instead of timelab64.exe. The 64-bit version of TimeLab isn't usually needed when working with standard TICs and frequency counters. -- john, KE5FX Miles Design LLC

Hello John, thanks, that did the trick - it´s working flawless now!
