Connecting Third-Party Devices via GPIB
Some third-party devices communicate with Chromleon via GPIB (IEEE-488.2). This requires that a GPIB card or GPIB/USB adapter is installed in the Chromeleon Server PC. In addition, GPIB interface software and VISA library must be installed. Chromeleon supports the following GPIB interfaces:
Manufacturer |
GPIB Interface |
Dionex Part No. |
National Instruments |
NI PCI GPIB card |
5919.0012 |
National Instruments |
NI PCI GPIB+ card |
n/a (must be ordered from National Instruments) |
