what Interface will you use to pull data out of the analyzer? HPIB?

  Are you sure? yes | no

Hi, thanks for asking. Both HPIB and RS232 are viable, RS232 being simpler to use. It does not need any special drivers if VISA is not used thus would require a shorter tool chain.

But now I am looking into the https://sigrok.org/ project. It would make a lot more sense to just write drivers for the instrument and use existing tool instead of trying to roll out something custom.
