Sorry i'm not familiar with those instruments.  Most companies can answer simple questions by phone or e-mail.  Lacking that, a sales representative may be willing to stop by and give some advice.

Agreed, contact the company directly.  We were lucky enough to have someone who crafted a device to send a command from the trigger box to matlab, but it wasn't quite this complicated.  Not worth voiding your warranty.

Hello Darryl,

If you still want to do it yourself, have a look at page 9 of this document http://ced.co.uk/img/signaltms.pdf from Cambridge Electronic Design Ltd. It might help you to make your own connector/adapter cable.

thanks for all the responses.  We managed to identify the pin number and have proved our experimental design.  I have since purchased a cable from ADi so looking into the future we should have no problems with noise etc.

Thanks
