Description
The Instrument Control Module comes with several Part Numbers including 781753-01, 778658-01, 778659-01, and 189140D-02L, making it versatile for various setups and requirements. It features a dual Interface system comprising both the IEEE 488 and Gigabit Ethernet, ensuring high-speed data transfer and connectivity options for a wide range of instruments.
At its core, the module is powered by an Intel 82540EM Gigabit Ethernet controller, which supports transfer rates of up to 1,000 Mbit/s over Ethernet and more than 1.5 Mbytes/s under the IEEE 488.1 standard. For even faster data movement, the module can achieve speeds of up to 7.7 MB/s using the HS488 protocol.
Compatibility is broad with support for older operating systems such as Windows NT/Me/98, Windows and LV RT, including versions up to Windows and LV RT 2009, ensuring the module can integrate into various existing setups without the need for extensive system upgrades.
Connection to networks and instruments is facilitated through a standard RJ-45 ether connector and a standard 24-pin IEEE 488 connector, respectively. This module is designed to be plug-and-play with the included NI 488.2 driver software, simplifying the setup process.
Physical specifications include a compact footprint of 3.9 x 6.3 inches, allowing it to fit seamlessly into a variety of spaces without occupying excessive room. It operates within a temperature range of 0 °C to 55 °C and can be stored in temperatures ranging from -40 °C to 70 °C. Humidity tolerance is also robust, with operational levels from 10% to 90% RH and storage levels from 5% to 95% RH.
When it comes to durability, the module can withstand operating vibrations of 0.31 grms and non-operating vibrations of 2.46 grms (5 Hz to 500 Hz), ensuring reliability in a variety
