This unit
The Keysight/Agilent/HP E4806A is a C-size, 2-slot VXI embedded controller purpose-built for automated test systems. Running Windows NT 4.0, this embedded PC integrates directly into VXI mainframes and delivers the processing, storage, and connectivity required for instrument control and data acquisition in production and R&D environments.

RAM: 32 MB to 256 MB
Hard drive: 512 MB to 2 GB
Floppy drive included Operating System
Windows NT 4.0 Interfaces
Integrated GPIB
Integrated Ethernet
Integrated SCSI Physical Form Factor
C-size, 2-slot VXI module
Key Features The E4806A consolidates processor, memory, and mass storage into a single VXI-compatible module, eliminating the need for external controller hardware. Built-in GPIB connectivity enables direct instrument communication. Ethernet and SCSI interfaces support network integration and high-speed data transfer. Configurable RAM and hard drive options accommodate different system requirements and test complexity levels.
Typical Applications Automated test equipment (ATE) systems, production test environments, benchtop instrument control, data logging and acquisition, distributed measurement systems using VXI architecture.
Compatibility & Integration Designed for integration into various VXI mainframes. The 2-slot form factor and C-size mechanical specification ensure compatibility with standard VXI chassis. Windows NT 4.0 support enables use of standard Windows-based test software and instrument drivers.
Keysight / Agilent / HP E4806A — Repair & Calibration Service
Aumictech offers NIST-traceable calibration and repair for the Keysight / Agilent / HP E4806A. 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 Keysight / Agilent / HP E4806A 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.
Keysight / Agilent / HP E4806A price
This Keysight / Agilent / HP E4806A is listed at $1,850. Calibration is available separately from $450. Contact us for volume pricing or if you need multiple units.
Keysight / Agilent / HP E4806A calibration cost
NIST-traceable calibration for the Keysight / Agilent / HP E4806A 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 →
