When Chartread establishes communication with my SpectroScan, it
receives the SpectroScan label, but on subsequent calls it receives a
response of spectrolino and begins a manual workflow. This looks similar

My problem may be different from the previous post because I get
slightly different debugging codes from chartread. I'll include it below
the signature. Chartread with -v flag gives:
icoms: Write_Read Write_Read success, returning
':D1905370656374726F5363616E00000000000000^M^J'
It does seem to the a similar problem. Currently the string
"SpectroScan " is expected in the above device type string,
but your instrument seems to be returning "SpectroScan" (note
the lack of a trailing space).
[ The lack of uniformity amongst machines in the field is a constant
source of amazement! Manufacturers seem to love fiddling with
things. ]

A code in ss.c about line 269 may solve your problem
from this:
if (strcmp(devn, "SpectroScan ") == 0) {
p->itype = instSpectroScan;
} else if (strcmp(devn, "SpectroScanT") == 0) {
p->itype = instSpectroScanT;
}
to this:
if (strcmp(devn, "SpectroScan ") == 0
|| strcmp(devn, "SpectroScan") == 0) {
p->itype = instSpectroScan;
} else if (strcmp(devn, "SpectroScanT") == 0) {
p->itype = instSpectroScanT;
}
If you tell me which platform you are on I can make a patched version
available.
