This unit
The Agilent/Keysight E1498A V743/100 is a C-size, single-slot VXI embedded controller built around the PA-RISC 7100LC processor running at 100 MHz. It delivers direct VXI backplane integration with HP-UX operating system support, enabling measurement system control within a compact form factor. This controller combines on-board graphics, configurable memory up to 128 MB, and comprehensive I/O connectivity to support demanding test automation and data acquisition tasks.

Compatibility & Integration The E1498A operates under HP-UX 9.05 or later and maintains complete compatibility with other HP 9000 Series 700 workstations and controllers. VXI address space support spans all standard modes (A16, A24, A32), enabling integration with diverse instrument modules and peripheral devices within VXI chassis environments.
Agilent / Keysight E1498A — Repair & Calibration Service
Aumictech offers NIST-traceable calibration and repair for the Agilent / Keysight E1498A. Calibration covers analog input channel accuracy and offset at all gain settings, analog output accuracy, digital I/O logic threshold verification, sample rate and timing accuracy, and trigger and synchronization bus functional verification. NI CompactRIO and PXI chassis also undergo backplane trigger line integrity check.. All calibrations ship with a NIST-traceable certificate. Turnaround is typically 1–3 business days after receipt.
Common Agilent / Keysight E1498A faults: power supply failure (cRIO-9073/9074), C-series slot connector wear, PXI chassis fan failure, GPIB interface failure on VXI controllers, BIOS/EEPROM corruption. NI CompactRIO most common faults are power supply failure on older cRIO-9073/9074 chassis and C-series module slot connector wear from repeated hot-swap cycles. PXI chassis fan failure is the most common wear item — chassis fans are field-replaceable. VXI embedded controllers most commonly develop EEPROM corruption and GPIB interface failure.

This Agilent / Keysight E1498A is listed at $2,410. Calibration is available separately from $450. Contact us for volume pricing or if you need multiple units.
Agilent / Keysight E1498A calibration cost
NIST-traceable calibration for the Agilent / Keysight E1498A is $450 (standard — pass/fail certificate and calibration sticker) or $650 (full measured data at every test point, reference standards documented, traceability chain included). Calibration for this instrument covers analog input channel accuracy and offset at all gain settings, analog output accuracy, digital I/O logic threshold verification, sample rate and timing accuracy, and trigger and synchronization bus functional verification. NI CompactRIO and PXI chassis also undergo backplane trigger line integrity check.. Turnaround is 1 to 3 business days after receipt. See full calibration details →
