Description
The product detailed in this specification belongs to the GPIB category, with specific part numbers 776569-01, 776569-02, 776569-03, 776569-04, 776569-05, and 776569-06. It is identified as model GPIB-SCSI-A, which is a National Instruments GPIB SCSI Controller.
This device operates at a voltage of U.S. 120 VAC and offers an input voltage option range of 120-240 VAC. It is designed with the capability to control up to 14 GPIB instruments and 7 SCSI devices. The modes of control available on this device include both SCSI(S) and GPIB(G), providing a versatile range of use cases.
The transfer rate of the GPIB-SCSI-A varies based on the mode of operation. It can achieve a transfer rate of 1.0 Mbytes/s when reading into the buffer from SCSI/GPIB, 800 kbytes/s when performing SCSI read and GPIB read from the buffer, and 600 kbytes/s for straight-through transfers with no buffering. The device is equipped with an input RAM buffer of 256 kbytes and draws a maximum current of 90 mA at 120 VAC.
The GPIB port connector is a 24 pin IEEE-488, standard for GPIB interfaces, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of GPIB instruments. This controller is an essential tool for professionals requiring efficient and reliable integration of GPIB instruments with SCSI devices.
