<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>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 "hands on" experience. I'm trying to write a simple "Hello
World" type of program to make sure my computer and Fluke are set up correctly
and communicating. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>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 "AUX
I/F" , "READ", "YES." When I press the AUX I/F button, I get a message saying
"NO IO INFO." 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 "9000A
REMOTE MODE ERR091." 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.)</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Am I sending the program correctly? Or do I need to
set up something else on the Fluke? </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Thanks in advance. I'm hoping to spend more time
with it this weekend using the 6502 pod.</FONT></DIV>
