IEEE-488.2 Remote Control Option

The FIREBERD IEEE-488.2 Remote Control Option gives you the ability to control your FIREBERD 6000 via

computer for automated testing. Ideal for the manufacturing environment, the option lets you control as many as 15
devices with a single controller.

LabVIEW

®

Drivers

LabVIEW

®

drivers available free from National Instruments

®

Corporation enable you to communicate with your

FIREBERD 6000 through the IEEE-488 (GPIB) interface. Using LabVIEW with your computer allows you to send and
receive information from a variety of test instruments, including voltmeters and oscilloscopes, and display the results on
your computer. And you can speed up your automated testing using predefined test scripts—the graphical interface
makes programming simple.

ISU 6000-4 and ISU 6000-8 Interface Switching Units

ISUs offer maximum convenience when using more than two

interfaces by enabling you to switch among up to eight different
interface modules. Select these interfaces from the FIREBERD
6000’s front panel or under remote control for added versa-
tility. ISUs can be rack-mounted in a standard 19" rack.

Rack Mounts

A variety of sturdy rack mounts are available for both

plastic case and metal case FIREBERD 6000 mainframes and printers, standard at 19". A rack mount extension kit
expands available space to 23".
