National Instruments 778039-01 Instrument Control Module
National Instruments part number 778039-01 is an identifying part number for the PXI-GPIB, an Instrument Control Module. The NI 778039-01 is an IEEE 488 controller module designed for PXI systems. This module allows you to integrate non-PXI instruments into your PXI system via GPIB, achieving maximum IEEE 488.2 transfer rates. It comes with a license for the NI-488.2 driver software, ensuring maximum reliability when connected to third-party instruments with GPIB. This NI module provides robust performance for GPIB communication. It supports 3-wire GPIB with transfer rates up to 1536 kbytes/s and HS488 with transfer rates up to 7885 kbytes/s. When it comes to power requirements, it typically draws 80 mA and a maximum of 165 mA at +5 V, while the VIO power draw is 3 mA typically and 10 mA maximum.
If any active listener is unable to perform HS488 transfers, the protocol automatically falls back to the IEEE 488.1 three-wire interlocked handshake protocol. The maximum data transfer rates achievable with HS488 are dependent on the architecture of the host computer and the system configuration. The 778039-01 can be operated using GPIB software and programmed with development tools like Microsoft Visual C/C++, Borland C/C++, and Microsoft Visual Basic. To accelerate development, APIs such as LabWindows/CVI or LabVIEW can be utilized. The capability of the GPIB controller is improved by this Module, which combines a Gigabit Ethernet port and a GPIB controller into a single device. This allows users to achieve high-performance GPIB and Ethernet interfaces in one combined device, conserving space in their computer or PXI chassis.
The device requires an input power of 600 mA typically and 800 mA maximum at +5 VDC. This module measures 16.0 cm × 10.0 cm (6.3 in. × 3.9 in.) and fits in a 3U slot. It features an IEEE 488 24-pin GPIB connector and a 32-bit Universal Signaling PXI connector. The module is compatible with multiple operating systems, including Linux Real-Time OS, Windows, and Unix.te:I
