Characteritics

The Agilent E2078A is a high-performance IEEE-488 interface and software for 5 V PCI-based workstations. The E2078A makes it easy to access and control instruments and exchange data.

The E2078A comes with SICL and VISA software for HP-UX 10.20. This software is compatible with all previous versions of SICL/VISA. The hardware is auto-configurable using PCI standards, eliminating the need for switch settings.
