Modifying GPIB Instruments to Include LAN/LXI

Application Notes

Introduction

In most cases, the process of replacing a GPIB instrument with a similar LXI-based device will be relatively quick and easy. This is a major strength of LXI, which has been designed to simplify instrument set up and configuration.

A LAN interface is a standard part of practically every PC. That interface can provide significant speed improvements, and can be simple to use. With LXI, it is possible to use virtually any LAN-equipped PC, connect it to an LXI instrument, bring up the instrument Web page, configure the instrument, and start using it in just a few minutes.

Modifying a GPIB system to include LAN/LXI is the seventh application note in a series designed to help you manage the shift from GPIB to LXI. This follow-on to application note 1465-25 Migrating system software from GPIB to LAN/LXI takes you through the process of replacing one instrument in a typical GPIB test system and shows how simple changes to the system software make it possible. For additional background information about migrating to LXI from GPIB, please refer to the companion application notes 1465-22, Transitioning from GPIB to LXI, and 1465-25, and Migrating system software from GPIB to LAN/LXI.
