Description
The National Instruments GPIB-ENET Hardware kit is specifically designed for the ESP-488 (Engineering Software Package), offering a seamless integration for GPIB systems. With part numbers 181950N-01 and 320910A-01, this device falls under the GPIB category and is identified by the model GPIB-ENET. It serves as an essential tool for enabling network communication among IEEE 488 devices, thereby facilitating the sharing of one GPIB system by multiple users and controlling test systems from a single point.
Compatibility with both IEEE 488.1 and IEEE 488.2 standards ensures a wide range of device connections, while supported operating systems include Mac OS X, Linux, and Microsoft Windows, offering flexibility across different platforms. The device features an RJ-45 Ethernet I/O connection and is compatible with Gigabit, 100BASE-TX, and 10BASE-T network protocols, ensuring high-speed and reliable network connections.
Up to 14 GPIB devices can be supported simultaneously, with the capability to control up to 100 GPIB-ENET/1000 interfaces, making it ideal for large-scale operations and test setups. Security is also a key feature, with a password-protected user interface ensuring that settings remain secure and unauthorized access is prevented.
The device requires NI-488.2 software for operation, and it comes with an internal power supply that can accommodate both 100-120 VAC and 220-240 VAC inputs, making it adaptable to various power sources. This hardware kit is an indispensable tool for professionals looking to enhance their GPIB network’s efficiency, reliability, and security.
