Keysight/Agilent E1306A GPIB Command Module for B-Size VXI
The E1306A GPIB Command Module from Keysight/Agilent is a B size VXI communication management controller. It occupies two slots within compatible mainframe systems. The unit converts SCPI measurement commands into readable instrument control instructions. The command processing architecture simplifies programming tasks across connected register based VXI instrumentation platforms. The module supports communication access with compatible devices. It does not support Compiled SCPI command processing operations. The integrated RS232 interface supports direct terminal connectivity for configuration diagnostics and debugging applications. Available baud rate configurations include 300 1200 2400 4800 9600 and 19200 transmission settings. The serial communication interface includes dedicated 100-character buffering capacity for reliable command processing operations. The E1306A GPIB Command unit supports expandable nonvolatile RAM memory configurations through optional one-megabyte installation increments.
The users can install maximum onboard memory capacity reaching 2 MB for advanced application requirements. Additional memory supports downloadable SCPI drivers for well-suited register based communication environments. The integrated real time clock maintains stable timing accuracy during synchronized measurement and testing procedures. Clock accuracy reaches 0.01 percent elapsed timing performance with additional one second operational tolerance specifications. The timing architecture provides one second resolution for controlled sequencing and scheduled measurement execution operations. Non-volatile timing retention remains operational for 60-days through integrated NiCad battery support systems.
The E1306A's trigger subsystem provides accurate pulse generation functionality for timing dependent instrumentation and automation environments. Initial trigger pulses maintain 0.01% programmed timing accuracy with 600 through 850 nanoseconds deviation. Additional trigger pulses maintain 0.01 percent programmed timing accuracy with fifty nanoseconds operational tolerances. The module operates using an integrated 8 MHz 68000 processing architecture for command execution management. The architecture does not include shared memory functionality or integrated HP IBASIC programming support capabilities. The GPIB command module does not include MXIbus resource management functionality support features. The integrated architecture also excludes CLK10 synchronization support within VXI domains. The current requirements include +5-volt operational support for stable communication management functionality. IPM current consumption reaches 0.95 amperes while IDM current consumption remains limited to 0.01 amperes. The included VIC utility accelerates initialization procedures during complex VXI configuration and deployment environments operations reliably.
