Overview

Product overview

Key product information and technical features.

NI lists the GPIB-SCSI-A as an external SCSI-GPIB controller for LabWindows/CVI for Sun. It provides an instrument-control interface rather than measurement inputs.

Archived LabVIEW 7.0 release notes explicitly support the GPIB-SCSI-A in the Sun installation section, while distinguishing it from the original GPIB-SCSI box.

  • Performs GPIB-to-SCSI protocol conversion.
  • Connects up to 14 GPIB devices without an extender.
  • DIP switches configure SCSI ID and GPIB primary address.

FAQ

Product-specific questions

Product-specific answers based on available technical information.

Is the GPIB-SCSI-A the same as the original GPIB-SCSI?

No. NI's LabVIEW 7.0 release notes distinguish the two: the Sun installation notes support GPIB-SCSI-A but not the original GPIB-SCSI.

Which Solaris configuration is documented?

The archived guide specifies Sun SPARC, Solaris 2.5.1 or higher, and NI-488.2 for Solaris/GPIB-SCSI-A version 2.x. This is historical documentation, not assurance of current operating-system support.
