[quote][/quote]Could anybody tell me if it is possible to use the USB/HPIB interface within HP Basic? I know this language is being obsoleted, but we have some old programs that we´d like to use, but now we don´t have the HPIB card in the computer, we use this interface.
Thank you very much in advance,

You certainly can use an Agilent 82357A with HPBASIC. You need to get the SICL ID from the Agilent Connection Expert. In my case it is gpib0. Now you have to go to HPBASIC and edit the AUTOST program.
You need a line that reads:
LOAD BIN "HPIBS; DEV gpib0 ISC 7"
the word after DEV will be your SICL ID and the number after ISC is the number you will use to address. For example here, if I had a power supply at address 5 I would address it as 705.
Let me know if this helps.
