This is an incredible setup. Very powerful to have the ability to automate using software. You are lucky to have the HP equipment, it us such a sad story what happened to that company (when beancounters took over from the Engineers). The only product they currently sell that is inspired was...

That HP equipment!!! Can you explain a little more on how the raspberry pi and nod red is utilized? I assume you mean that you drive the equipment via the IEEE interface, but what exactly do you automate can you provide an example? Very interesting.

Some "The Cramps" to spice up the holiday..

Aqualung is one of my all time favorite albums.. I am lucky to have both the Mobile Fedility as well as the Classic Records releases (vinyl). Sublime!!
