Metex Digital Multimeter Software

Scripts and programs that can be used to connect to a Metext ME-11, ME-12, and M-3850D DMM via RS-232 and periodically read the values of the meter. It's quite slow, roughly 1 measurement per second(adjustable) ;-).

Note, that a straight cable is required for the serial connection, not a null-modem cable.

metex.py

Python script that reads the values from the meter.

Original Software

The original software is contained in metex-floppy.img. This is a raw copy of the original floppy that came with the multimeter. It contains two scope programms, one for DOS and one for Windows.

I got them both running under macOS with DOSBox with a Windows 3.1 installation. You can configure your USB serial device in the DOSBox settings like this:

serial1=directserial realport:tty.usbserial-AH070BRN

Digital Multimeter Scope

This is the METEX.EXE DOS program in the folder GRAPHIC.

ScopeView

This is the METEX.EXE Windows program in the folder SCOPE.
