***A great product at a very affordable price!*** For some time, I have had aninterest in learning more about GPIB interfacing and all the additional functionalityavailable through the GPIB port on the rear of my test equipment. The GPIB-to-USB ConnectionBoard has given me the chance to pursue that interest, without emptying my pocketbook.After receiving the GPIB-to-USB unit, I was able to quickly repair a non-functioningprogrammable power supply. Only through the GPIB port, could I have easily seen whatwas wrong with the supply. Now, I am ready to move on to bigger challenges involvingcomputerized control of my test equipment. Thanks for the exciting new product.

I have a Tek scope with GPIB, and wanted to automate some measurements. But the NIdongle is $500. So I tried the GBIP-USB card. It uses drivers from FTDI, which installon XP with no problems. In a very short time, I was commanding the scope throughHyperterminal. Totally painless to bring it up. I highly recommend the product.

This GPIB-to-USB dongle plus a plotter emulator software program (7470.EXE by John Miles)will provide a simple, inexpensive way to capture and print screen plots from a varietyof GPIB-based test instruments. This is "plug-and-play" functionality at its very best.The usual expense and hassle of dealing with a GPIB port is a thing of the past.Thanks for a great product.

Review: I have a bunch of older test equipment with GPIB interfaces on them.For a long time I had wanted to set them up with computer control and data capture butthe cost of entry for a IEEE-488 to PC interface was prohibitive. This little devicelooks to your PC like a serial USB device - (your PC already has drivers if you runWindows 2000 or XP. Linux has drivers in the latest Kernals). Now I can commandinstruments, then recieve data back to file, plot or process further. Great device!
