GPIB-USB-HS, 24 Pin, IEEE 488.2 Compatible, GPIB Instrument Control Device
National Instruments GPIB-USB-HS GPIB Instrument Control Device
Featured with standard USB and GPIB connectors, the NI GPIB-USB-HS (Part Numbers: 778927-01, 779704-01, 780570-01, 779705-01, 187965-01, 187965H-01L) is a portable IEEE 488.2 compatible device for USB enabled machines (computers, laptops, etc.). This device offers data transfer rates up to 1830 Kbytes/s and up to 7230 Kbytes/s while operating in 3-wire and HS488 mode respectively. This device is not powered from an external source, since it receives power from the +5 V (VBUS) and consumes 140 mA in typical conditions. It has a power requirement of 500 mA.
The NI GPIB-USB-HS device comes with two LEDs to indicate activity and status. When plugged into a Hi-Speed USB 2.0 port, the READY light glows amber. However, the green color is used to show that the device is plugged into a full-speed USB 1.1 port. The other LED is used to indicate GPIB bus activity. This GPIB device is offered with the National Instruments NI-488.2 driver. Thus, users have access to the capabilities of a powerful driver with additional wizards and utilities that assist with troubleshooting programs and decreasing development time. Moreover, the user can maintain absolute compatibility with existing infrastructure and systems. Applications or programs previously written for other GPIB devices can run with the National Instruments GPIB-USB-HS unmodified.
This GPIB Instrument Control Device is unique because it does not require any cable to connect to instruments. The user can directly attach the GPIB-USB-HS to the GPIB port on another instrument. Then, connect a USB cable to any functional USB port on a laptop or computer. With this IEEE 488 Controller, the user can connect multiple instruments in a star or daisy chain configuration as well. The device is equipped with an IEEE 488 24-pin connector and a USB standard type A plug connector.
The NI device weighs 6.3 oz, and measures 4.2 x 2.6 x 1.0 in. in physical dimensions. It has recommended operating and storage temperature ranges of 0 °C to 55 °C and -20 °C to 70 °C respectively
GPIB-USB-HS Mature Status has been declared by National Instruments, but the device will still be available for purchase and repairs at Apex Waves.
