Connecting Instruments to GPIB

Step 2: Install GPIB Cards in Your PC

3 Remove a Cover Plate. Remove one of the PC back panel cover plates.

The 82350B is a 5V PCI card and will not fit in a 3.3V PCI slot or in an

EISA or ISA slot. Choose a 5V PCI slot that will give adequate

clearance for the GPIB connector.

Install the 82350. Insert the 82350 Interface Card edge connector into

the PCI expansion slot connector of the PC. Make sure the interface is

fully seated by pushing firmly on the top edge of the card with the palm

of your hand. The GPIB connector should extend through the back

panel opening to allow GPIB cable connection.

If you install more than one 82350, you may want to install the cards

so there is at least one empty slot between every two 82350s. When

inserting the 82350, be sure to hold the card by its edges. Also, be

careful with the metal faceplate around the GPIB connector as the

faceplate can be bent.
