I may be able to get a 287 at a reasonable price but it's missing the weird looking USB connector. Can anyone tell me what I need to connect a 287 to a PC? Also comments on the meter in general are welcomed. |

OK, I get it, RTFM. But here's some questions: 1 Can I connect via BT or physical serial port? 2 If yes to 1, what are the settings? 3 What applications run on the PC? |

You can also use the below USB adapter https://www.fluke.com/en-us/product/accessories/adapters/fluke-ir189usb https://www.fluke.com/en-us/product/accessories/software/fluke-fvf-sc2-flukeview-forms-software |

The USB cable has a serial bridge chip (probably FTDI) in it that will create a virtual serial port so on Windows it will enumerate as COMn, for example COM3. The communication type is human-readable text. The way I use it is through a Python program but of course there are numerous ways depending what you want to do. here is some documation about the interface cable. https://sigrok.org/wiki/Device_cables#Fluke_IR189USB |
