Where is the program "ASYST" gone ??

08/28/2007 4:53 AM

Hi all,

about 15-20 years ago there was a very powerful (and expensive!) DOS-program named "ASYST" for data acquisition, evaluation and presentation. It was sold by Keithley, hp, tektronix and other triple-A-companies. Interesting was that it has been programmed based on the very stable and less memory consuming FORTH.

Does anyone know where this has gone and, perhaps, whether the old code can be got to use it in embedded applications ? I believe the developer fossiles must mostly be still alive ... ;-)
Regards Uwe

dear uwe,

I was a user of asyst, too, and I found it very powerful, except for the limitation of the buffer acquisition (64k). I am interested in knowing if

1) you had success in contacting annson

2) you have some idea in solving the buffer limitation

thank you very much

Yes, they're still alive, one of them is my dad. You're probably older than he is any way.

Hi all,

I'm very interest in this ASYST scientific software program. I wonder if anyone can convert it into Windows-based system!? The 8th designer is interested in finding people to fund in porting it to 8th.
