Dear Hans,
  We tried using LabView to run our 251 a few years ago, but i soon realized
that the project would be much bigger than our pocketbook. Although i wrote
a program that ran the multiport and evacuated sample bottles prior to
measurement, i never succeeded in cracking the rather important aspect of
reading the voltage counters.

   We anxiously await the release of isodat NT.

Subject: running a Finnigan 251/252/delta..on a windows-based software


Hi all,

is there anybody in the scientific community who has ever tried to run
Finnigan IRMS under a windows-based software or LABVIEW (NI) or something
equivalent instead of a DOS based software ?
