Hello,

I am sorry, but I am still a little bit confused. This means, there is no=
 way to use usbtmc in Windows (or any other way to read data from an USB =
interface) and I should use a serial port interface instead of an USB Int=
erface=3F Or did I understand something wrong=3F
Thanks a lot for your help=21

Best regards,
Kathrin

Per the wiki for instrument-control =5B1=5D, the usbtmc interface is not =
available in windows. You can also run 'instrhwinfo' from octave to see w=
hich interfaces have been built..

It you are doing basic serial type commands, you can just use the serialp=
ort objectinstead.to(http://instead.to)read and write to a usb serial por=
t.

Hi Andy,<br />
<br />
I tried these steps, but unfortunately it did not work.<br />
I attached a screenshot of the error. Also, when I use the
instrhwinfo&nbsp;<br />
function, USB is not listed. Is there anything else I can do=3F<br />
<br />
Best regards,<br />
Kathrin<br />
