I have the Ethernet version. They're nice for quick and dirty stuff and the USB / Ethernet versions can be used on laptops (Ethernet can be used on any computer that can telnet across the wire). You get to write your own software to use them or use EZGPIB (and write your own software).
Using a "real" NI GPIB interface means it works with everything out there, including EZGPIB but you're greatly limited on hardware platforms. You're stuck using a computer with a PCI bus unless you want to fork over the cash for the NI USB or Ethernet interfaces for lots of money. I tend to use my PCI-GPIB card and it was under $100 delivered from eBay. -Bob On Sun, Aug 1, 2010 at 5:18 PM, Heathkid <heath...@heathkid.com> wrote: > I just purchased a HP 5335A and would like to know the group's opinion on > the following: > http://www.sparkfun.com/commerce/product_info.php?products_id=549 > > 73 Brice KA8MAV > > _______________________________________________ > time-nuts mailing list -- time-nuts@febo.com > To unsubscribe, go to > https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts > and follow the instructions there. > _______________________________________________ time-nuts mailing list -- time-nuts@febo.com To unsubscribe, go to https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts and follow the instructions there.
