Fluke 287 Connectivity

(1/6) > >>

Gandalf_Sr:
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.

Gandalf_Sr:
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?

MikeLud:
You can also use the below USB adapter

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.
