[time-nuts] 59503A GPIB clock windows/linux software.

That's the One, a 53509A.

It is a quarter width 2RU unit (a bit higher with its feet on)
Has GPIB on rear.
Set via buttons behind a small hinged flap on the front.
My 59503A drifts a lot and I seem to remember it wasn't y2K compliant.

I want to have some software send out a request for time over the HPIB to the 59503A.
If the software reads and finds the 59503A is X amount out from NTP or even system time, write back the right time to the 58503A.

Possible to do it with talk.exe and listen.exe from GPIB toolkit and a batch file?

I'd bet there are some time-nuts with at least one of these GPIB clocks ;)

In the 5950x line there is a display unit. IMO, that would be a lot easier.

YMMV.
