Agilent / HP / Keysight E1406A
E1406A VXI GPIB Command Module, C-Size
Description
This Command Module is a C-size, 1-slot VXI message-based commander that will provide Slot 0 and Resource Manager function.
It can act as a VMEbus system controller and GPIB (IEEE-488)-to-VXIbus interface device for transparently communicating with any manufacturers message-based VXI modules.
This module has FLASH memory for downloadable drivers, allows you can program Agilent register-based devices using the high-level SCPI program language.
It will translate SCPI commands for register-based instruments and so this makes these VXI devices as easy to program as message-based instruments.
This command module also has a MXIbus Resource Manager for VXIbus extensions.
This allows you to maintain high-throughput performance in multiple mainframe systems.
It has flexible triggering and clock interfacing, that allows you to synchronize the VXI backplane 10MHz clock to an external TTL signal.
Key Points
MXIbus protocol support for high throughput
