74hc595 / mac-to-hp16500c.md
Created July 25, 2020 07:28
connect macOS to an HP 16500C logic analyzer over X11

tested on macOS Catalina 10.15.5

This is a version of Philip Pemberton's "Remote-controlling the HP 16500B", available from the Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/20170809181654/https://www.philpem.me.uk/elec/testgear/hp16500b/rc/

Follow Philip's steps to obtain the font files lg165.bdf and sm165.bdf from your logic analyzer. I was able to do this over FTP, but not through the Finder. I installed the command-line ftp utility with brew install tnftp.

After you have the fonts converted to .pcf.gz files, this is where the paths diverge. (pun intended)
