My plotting programs are written in BASIC combined with the HP-GL graphics language. Plotting works fine but now I wish to use the plotter for digitizing. My HP-7470A Graphics Plotter Interfacing and Programming Manual states on page 11-6 that "At the time of this printing (May 1983), the I/O functions necessary to obtain data from the plotter are not available for the HP-75...". Does anyone out there know if digitization with the hp-75C and HP-7470A combination is possible or where I get information on this subject? I have read all my HP manuals and they are no help.
