Is the old HP-IB on a ribbon cable compatable with the now standard GPIB?

I have found a HP61001A and associated 61016, 61014 etc test equipment. It uses a ribbon cable to interface. Would anyone know if this is compatable with the now standard GPIB? Could it be used with some form of "connection converter"? Many thanks for any help.

Dave,
I recommend that you call HP to determine if the instrument is 488.1 compliant. If it is, then you can use GPIB boards (even 488.2 boards), but you must use 488.1 commands (such as ibwrt and ibrd). If the instrument is not 488.1 compliant, then you cannot use it with GPIB.
I hope this helps.
