Be careful on buying scanners. The issue is not the scanner but in the fact that they use plug in cards. Make sure you get the type of interface card(s) you need. There are a lot of HP/Agilent scanners out there minus all their cards.
Saying that you can anything from a 3421A to a rack size scanners for less the $25. The 3421A's usually go for a bit more since they are small. If space and power is not an issue you can get a 3497A with its integral DMM (option 001) and a input MUX card (option 010) for at times less the $25 minus shipping. The last three I got were free minus the 120 mile round trip. On the flip side I got about 2,000 ft of double braided low noise Teflon insulated wire tossed in. The down size is they are big. The plus is you can get many different I/O cards and use it for other projects. -pete > Marc Bury wrote: >> Hi Matt, >> >> A Hewlet Packard 3421A (Data acquisition unit) with option 20 (10 >> channel multiplexer) and GPIB would fit your need withour emptying your >> wallet. > > I can vouch for the 3421A -- nice, inexpensive box that is low power and > fairly painless to program.
