Will Programs Designed to Work with the GPIB Plug-In Boards Work with the GPIB-232CT-A Driver? Hardware: GPIB>>External Controllers/Convertors>>GPIB-1284CT
Problem: Will programs designed to work with the GPIB plug-in boards work with the GPIB-232CT-A driver? Solution: Yes, but you must install the correct NI-488.2 driver for the GPIB-232CT-A. The GPIB-232CT-A requires its own Windows 3.x version of the driver and the Compatibility Release if you use it under Windows 98/95. You cannot use the GPIB driver for Windows 98/95 with the GPIB-232CT-A because that driver does not support this GPIB interface. The GPIB-232CT-A is not supported under Windows 2000/NT. For the GPIB-232CT-A to communicate with GPIB instruments, you must use it in S mode, and you must connect your computer to the GPIB-232CT-A with a null modem serial cable. The GPIB-232CT-A driver is designed to translate standard GPIB commands into serial messages, which the GPIB-232CT-A then converts back into GPIB commands. This information is also true for the GPIB-485CT-A for RS-485 serial connections and the GPIB-1284CT for parallel port connections.For more information on GPIB Drivers or Manuals please follow the related links below.
