The GPIB IEEE-488.2 standard intro-
duced “forgiving listening – precise talking.”
This means that 488.2 devices can accept a
wide range of data formats, which makes
them ideal interfaces between electronic
instruments and PCs.
NEW GPIB PCIL: Easy to Set Up & Use
Our GPIB PCIL board provides full
IEEE-488.2 compatibility with data
transfer rates of 1.5 million bytes/s. An
on-board 1024-word FIFO buffer makes
it easy for a single board to control and
gather data from up to 14 instruments.
This is a complete talker/listener/
controller on a compact, short-slot 32-bit
PCI-bus interface card. An industry-
standard shielded GPIB connector makes
it easy to use standard GPIB cables. The
GPIB PCIL comes mounted on a standard
12-cm backplate, and an 8-cm backplate
is included for use in low-profile slots.
Full support is provided for Windows®
98/98SE/2000/NT/XP.
Other GPIB PCIL specifications:
Data Transfers: 1.5 MByte per second

NEW GPIB PXI: New Bus, Same Speed
Our GPIB PXI board uses the same
GPIB controller chip as our GPIB PCIL, so
it provides full IEEE-488.2 compatibility
with data transfer rates of 1.5 million
bytes/s. Full support is provided for
Windows 98SE/2000/NT and XP. The
primary difference between the two
boards is the system bus. That produces
some minor differences in the board’s
specifications:
Data Transfers: 1.5 MByte per second
Power Req: 400mA typ. @ 5 V
DC.

RoHS Compliance: Meets RoHS standards
USB Model: No Slots, No Hassle
Our GPIB USB model provides an easy
electrical and mechanical interface between
GPIB devices and your computer. Just load
the included software & drivers, plug in the
module, and run the configuration program.
Driver Software is NI-488.2
®
Compatible
In most cases you may run your existing
compiled programs using our compatible
DLL in place of the National Instruments®
version, or you may recompile your
programs to run with the GPIB Library DLL.
The GPIB Library has many different
routines, divided into two distinct libraries.
Each one is modeled on the corresponding
NI library. All routines that begin with “ib” or
“il” are part of the 488.1, or “Original GPIB
Library;”
“
488.2 Library” adds new functions.
Two levels of NI-488.2 Compatibility
The GPIB Library is compatible with the
NI-488.2 library on two levels. First, the
two libraries are syntactically and
functionally identical. The second level of
compatibility is binary (DLL) compatibility.
In almost all cases, you can swap the GPIB
Library DLL for the NI-488.2 DLL and run
programs compiled for the NI DLL, using
one of our GPIB boards.
LabVIEW support for all our GPIB-
series products is included free with
each board. The LabVIEW DLL is part of
our GPIB library.
Cabling for Your GPIB System
CyberResearch carries a full line of
GPIB/IEEE-488 cabling, a portion of which
is shown on pg. 159. For full specifications
on all of our cables, please visit our website.
