This unit
The Keysight (Agilent) R/382 Workstation Controller is a specialized computing platform designed to manage and control automated test and measurement systems in research, development, and manufacturing environments. Built around an MC68040 CPU, It has the processing power and connectivity required to orchestrate complex instrument configurations across distributed test facilities.

Key Features The R/382 accepts multiple interface cards to support diverse instrument control scenarios. System board removal utilizes a notch-and-tab alignment mechanism. The controller accommodates substantial onboard storage, enabling local caching of test data and system configurations.
Typical Applications Automated test systems in electronics manufacturing, development laboratories, and production environments benefit from the R/382's multi-interface architecture. It excels in coordinating GPIB-based instruments, serial devices, and LAN-connected equipment within single test sequences.
Compatibility & Integration The controller runs HP-UX operating system and supports HP BASIC/UX 6.2 for test program development. Agilent OpenLab CDS software compatibility extends support to instruments connected via LAN, GPIB, RS-232, or USB protocols, with dedicated Agilent Interface Concentrators (AICs) operating exclusively over LAN connections.
Keysight / Agilent R/382 — Repair & Calibration Service
Aumictech offers NIST-traceable calibration and repair for the Keysight / Agilent R/382. 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 R/382 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 R/382 calibration cost
NIST-traceable calibration for the Keysight / Agilent R/382 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 →
