Ethernet, GPIB and USB to Serial Interface Board

ICS's Model 9006 is a multi-interface to serial board that adds Ethernet, GPIB and USB interfaces to serial devices or older instruments. Use with an embedded processor board to create smart instruments with multiple interfaces.

The 9006's Ethernet port is VXI-11 compatible for easy control by the following computer systems without special drivers:

LINUX, UNIX, SunOS, MAC OS X, HP-UX, IBM-AIX and Windows 2K or later Windows systems.

Model 9006 Ethernet-GPIB-USB to Serial Interface

• All interfaces provide full communication with the serial device.

• Ethernet port supports VXI-11 and raw socket protocols.

• Controllable with Windows PC programs like C, Visual Basic, LabVIEW, VEE, etc that make VISA or SICL calls.

• Controllable from MAC/UNIX/LINUX and similar computers with RPC calls.

• GPIB port is IEEE-488.2 compatible.

• USB port uses Microsoft supplied driver to prevent driver problems with operating system change problems.

• Serial port provides RS-232 and 2 or 4-wire RS-485 signals.

• Supports devices that generate asynchronous messages, devices that respond when queried and smart devices.

• Internal webserver for easy configuration from any browser.

• Board runs on 5 to 15 Vdc power.

• Includes ICS's VXI-11 and VISA keyboard control programs.

• Works with Agilent, NI and Kikisui VISA libraries.
