Compatibility
Highly compatible, the controller includes drivers of the ICS and National Instruments 488.2 types; this allows the GPIB controller to operate with both IEEE 488.1 and 488.2. Windows compatibility is also not an issue. The controller is able to function with the second edition of Windows 98, Me, 2K, and even XP, and it commands ICS, NI 488, and NI 488.2.
Efficiency
Besides being compatible, the controller is efficient. This adapter is constructed with the latest in USB 2.0 technology, which makes the most of your computer's newly acquired GPIB controlling speeds. With the controller, you'll have an impressive, continual 1 Mbyte per second rate of data transfer.
This useful adapter features a standard USB input and a 24-pin GPIB output, and, as a bonus, keyboard controller software for your operating system is provided for this one low price. This program offers interactive control of devices using GPIB and circumvents the necessity of painstakingly producing a program of your own.
Also included is the excellent GPIB AnyWhere software, a handy program that allows you to take charge of your devices connected to the GPIB adaptor not only from in front of your computer, but from anywhere via the internet or a LAN connection.
As far as actual use, the controller's installation and setup is straightforward and, unlike some adapters, does not require advanced user knowledge. First, install the drivers that accompany the controller, then plug in the adapter to any USB port you choose (it may be either a 1.1 or 2.0 port). That's it. Now you're ready to access your GPIB devices from anywhere.
