Hi All,
Just wanted to notify anyone interested that I've recently released a piece of data-acquisition software for the DSA524 - it's available here: https://sourceforge.net/projects/dsaquire/
I've also uploaded various other resources I've collected that relate to this instrument - namely some manuals and dumps of the firmware.
Hope this is useful to some of you... tell your friends!
It may be a while before I get back into my workshop.
Bizarrely having worked as a self employed electronics engineer for the past 12 years, I've just started an apprenticeship in electronic engineering and haven't been near my own workshop for weeks
