#NotTimeNut

Review of the Fluke 1953A counter/timer shows it is fully working as hoped (operating under local and remote control.) Verified all inputs and operations via GPIB remote control with a simple LabVIEW program. Have a few more esoteric tests to run in near future, but for now, it looks great for a counter/timer from the 1970’s. #TestEquipment #LabVIEW #NotTimeNut

Photo of a Fluke 1953A multi-function counter on a very busy table top. Counter is under remote control and measuring a frequency of 20.123457 MHz from the TinyGTC source.

Desktop photo from above showing a NI GPIB-USB-HS module connected to the rear of the Fluke 1985A counter. Coaxial cable from the TinyGTC clock output is routed to the counter's A input jack.

Poor photo of the laptop screen showing the LabVIEW virtual instrument control panel controlling the Fluke counter via GPIB. The display shows mode control, time base, cycle LED, and output measurement of 20.123460 MHz. It works!
