ANSI X3.28 Interfaces

This table helps you select a GPIB to Serial Interface with the ANSI X3.28 Protocol. The ANSI X3.28 Serial Protocol is used in various industrial control devices including some Watlow and Tenny Temperature Controllers. The GPIB Interfaces listed on this page are all IEEE-488.2 compatible and will respond to the *IDN? query. All configuration parameters are saved in nonvolatile memory.

The Interfaces on this page can be used to replace ICS's older 4814 GPIB to Serial Interface if the 4814 was being used with the 'OPT' switch turned on (ANSI protocol enabled). If the 'OPT' switch was turned off, use a 4804B or a 4894B to replace the 4814.

     
4894A-7 w/F30146    
GPIB ANSI X3.28 Interface 4894A-7 GPIB-to-Serial Interface includes custom firmware, F30145, for converting GPIB strings into the ANSI X3.28 serial protocol. Standalone interface controls Temperature Chambers and other devices with the serial ANSI X-3.28 protocol. Has RS-232 and RS-485 serial interfaces. Can drive up to 32 ANSI devices on a RS-485 network. Download the 4894A-7data sheet as a PDF file.
