This unit
The Bustec ProDAQ 3020-AB USB 2.0 Slot-0 Interface is a C-size, register-based VXIbus module that establishes a direct, high-speed communication link between a host computer's USB 2.0 port and a VXIbus backplane. This interface can function as a Slot-0 controller, enabling seamless data acquisition and control for ProDAQ LXI and PXI systems. It has automatic detection of its Slot-0 status within a VXI mainframe, adapting its capabilities accordingly. The ProDAQ 3020-AB specifically includes an integrated GPIB port, allowing for the control of GPIB devices within the test system via the USB connection. It is compatible with Pentium-based PC systems equipped with USB 1.1 or USB 2.0 host controllers, with USB 2.0 recommended for full performance. The interface supports hot-plugging and hot-swapping of USB devices.

- CLK10 I/O: TTL level.
- GPIB Port Connector: Standard 24-pin IEEE 488 connector (for -AB model). Power Requirements:
- Voltage: * +5V: 900 mA typical, 1400 mA maximum * -5.2V: 300 mA maximum * -2V: 300 mA maximum
- Power Consumption: < 9.2 W Physical Characteristics:
- Dimensions: VXIbus single slot C-size module.
- Weight: 950 g Environmental:
- Operating Temperature: 0°C to +50°C
- Storage Temperature: -40°C to +70°C
- Humidity: 10% to 90% (non-condensing) Software Support:
- Compatibility: VXIplug&play compatible VISA library.
- Operating Systems: Microsoft Windows (32-bit, 64-bit), VxWorks, and Linux. (Contact Bustec Ltd. for specific Linux driver information).
- Drivers: VXIplug&play driver revision 4.3.1 for Windows 32/64-bit systems is available. Compatibility Notes:
- Does not extend the VXI backplane between mainframes in a multi-mainframe system.
- If used as a slot-0 controller in a D-size mainframe, it cannot provide control for instruments using the additional features of the P3 connector (CLK100, Star Trigger, add. Trigger and Local Bus Lines) as it is a C-size module.
