Hi al

Was wondering if anyone here has managed to find a way of outputting the display info of a 289 to stream via usb to excel, hope this an acceptable question for this forum...regards Pat

The USB to Fluke 289 is a serial to USB converter so if you write a VBA module to communicate with the com port you can do that. Use the information in this file

I was able to read from the 289 by writing a program with Visual Basic. So VBA for Excel wouldn't be too much different.

Sounds like an afternoon project with modern micros.  Take something like an ESP32-C3, feed a uart the serial stream, and have it run the USB port as an HID device to emulate the keystrokes.

Hell i’ll make the offer, send me a free 289 and I’ll have you a solution in a day :)
BeBuLamar:
There are pre made software (from Fluke and others) to records readings to a *.csv file which can be opened in Excel. Unless you have reasons that need the data to go into Excel directly those are easy solution.
