[Techtoolslist] Fluke FIDE 4.1.9 Run-time error'68'

[Bob Economaki]

Hi John

When do you get the error?

What are the physical connections and devices (all components) between 
the 9010A and your computer?
Are you using the Fluke factory RS232 serial H/W in the 9010A or an 
alternative Serial interface?
Are you connecting the serial interface in the 9010A to your computer 
via a USB-to-serial adapter?

What version of Windows are you running?
