FCC/DOC Radio Frequency Interference Compliance

This equipment generates and uses radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in strict

accordance with the instructions in this manual, may cause interference to radio and television

reception. This equipment has been tested and found to comply with (1) the limits for a Class A

computing device, in accordance with the specifications in Subpart J of Part 15 of U.S. Federal

Communications Commission (FCC) Rules, and (2) the limits for radio noise emissions from

digital apparatus set out in the Radio Interference Regulations of the Canadian Department of

Communication (DOC). These regulations are designed to provide reasonable protection against

interference from the equipment to radio and television reception in commercial areas.

There is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. However, the

chances of interference are much less if the equipment is used according to this instruction manual.

If the equipment does cause interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined

by turning the equipment on and off, one or more of the following suggestions may reduce or

eliminate the problem.

• Operate the equipment and the receiver on different branches of your AC electrical system.

• Move the equipment away from the receiver with which it is interfering.

• Relocate the equipment with respect to the receiver.

• Reorient the receiver's antenna.

• Be sure that the equipment is plugged into a grounded outlet and that the grounding has not

been defeated with a cheater plug.

If necessary, consult National Instruments or an experienced radio/television technician for

additional suggestions. The following booklet prepared by the FCC may also be helpful: How to

Identify and Resolve Radio-TV Interference Problems. This booklet is available from the U.S.

Government Printing Office, Washington, DC 20402, Stock Number 004-000-00345-4.

Description of the GPIB-100A

Introduction

The high-speed GPIB-100A Bus Extender (Figure 1-1) is used in pairs with a special parallel data

transmission cable to connect two separate GPIB or IEEE-488 bus systems in a functionally

transparent manner.

Figure 1-1. The Model GPIB-100A Bus Extender

While the two bus systems are physically separate, as shown in Figure 1-2, devices logically

appear to be located on the same bus as shown in Figure 1-3. Thus, with the GPIB-100A it is

possible to overcome two configuration restrictions imposed by ANSI/IEEE Standard 488-l978,

namely:

• Cable length limit of 20 m total per contiguous bus or 2 m times the number of devices on the

bus, whichever is smaller.

• Electrical loading limit of 15 devices per contiguous bus.

Each GPIB-100A system extends the distance limit by 300 m and the loading limit to 30 devices

including the extenders, without sacrificing speed or performance. These point-to-point extender

systems can be connected in series for longer distances or in star patterns for additional loading.

At short distances, the data transfer rate over the extension can exceed 250 kbytes/sec, degrading

with distance only by the propagation delay along the cable. Furthermore, regardless of the

distance, there is no speed degradation at all for transfers between devices on the same side of the
