Description
The National Instruments GPIB-ENET Hardware kit, part number 181945G-31 or alternatively 320910A-01, is designed for use in the ESP-488 (Engineering Software Package). This kit falls under the category of GPIB and is specifically model GPIB-ENET. It is tailored to facilitate network communication among IEEE 488 devices, enable the sharing of one GPIB system by multiple users, and control test systems from a single point.
This GPIB-ENET kit is compatible with IEEE 488.1 and IEEE 488.2 standards, ensuring a broad range of device compatibilities. It supports various operating systems including Mac OS X, Linux, and Microsoft Windows, offering flexibility in different working environments. The connection to networks is made through an Ethernet (RJ-45) I/O connection, and it supports TCP/IP network protocols such as Gigabit, 100BASE-TX, and 10BASE-T.
One of the notable features of this hardware kit is its ability to support a maximum of 14 GPIB devices from multiple hosts and to control up to 100 GPIB-ENET/1000 interfaces, making it highly scalable for larger setups. The user interface is password-protected, ensuring security and restricted access.
Included with the GPIB-ENET kit is the NI-488.2 software, enhancing its functionality and ease of use. The power supply is versatile, with an internal configuration that accepts 100-120 VAC or 220-240 VAC, accommodating different regional power standards.
