While searching the Keysight Technologies website this morning for more Inverse Assembler information, I found the answer to the problem of loading an inverse assembler into my HP16500B logic analyzer.
I kept getting an error message: "No Configuration Loaded"
The answer was on the Keysight site in a document - here is the text with my red text for the solution:
"If a user were to save configuration/data files to disk, the mainframe would write the mainframe slot
location of the instrument module into the saved file. Then, when a user reloads the file into the
module and does not specify a destination slot, the mainframe will assume that the module is in the
same slot it was in when the configuration file was originally saved and will attempt to load the
configuration file in the instrument module in that particular mainframe slot.
However, configuration files that come with preprocessors do not have the source location (card
slot) written into them. Hence, if the destination field in the Disk menu says "All" when customers
try to load the file, they will see the message "no configuration loaded".
They should change "All" to
the intended destination - "State/Timing E", for instance. Only then will the file be successfully
loaded."
Here is a screenshot from trying that on my 16500B with the CHPIB_I file. I used paint to add back the popup messages that disappeared when I pressed the PRINT button.
