You can troll sci.engineering.design for users of the prologix usb and ethernet interfaces. However I think the best suggestion was to get the pci to pcmcia adadpter.
My recollection is cardbus is 32bits and pcmcia is 16bits. My it shouldn't be an issue unless you try to run DOS. The only reason I mention this is I can't run some serial cards via my cardbus slot on my notebook due to the lack of a driver. -----Original Message----- From: "Paul A.

Just looked at the Prologix site, The usb interface is interesting, also the Ethernet device looks cool. I have a wireless network here with about 10 devices on it. Would I be able to monitor, say the 5370,b with TL running and maybe my HP3586 Selective level meter from a wireless laptop Using the proper software? This sounds like an interesting way to go. I have to read up on the prologix more. Paul A. Cianciolo W1VLF http://www.rescueelectronics.com/ Our business computer network is powered exclusively by solar and wind power.

That whole ISA/EISA/PCI bus thing is such a pain. Given USB/Ethernet, Prologix has nice GPIB interfaces. NI and Agilent also have them. brand new, the latter cost more, but perhaps they show up used at lower prices. _______________________________________________ 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. _______________________________________________ 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.
