Support for the 'B' revision board started with revision A.09.00 of ChemStation. It does support the earlier 82350A HPIB board using 'H' drivers.

I have another system with a 1050 arrangement that works, brought the computer tower down and hooked it up, everything came online, so I know the 1050 works, but this computer is running Windows2000, which is supported.Īnyone have an XP system using chemstation A.09.01 using a 1050? Any tips? I've set the config for Chemstation to the correct GPIB address numbers, tried using a previous version of IO libraries (tried H and L). When I run an *ident it just comes back with garbage. Any of the previous revisions doesn't seem to respond, but it doesn't seem like 16.1 really recognizes the 1050. The only time it will initialize is durring 'autoconfig' using Agilent IO Libraries 16.1. I've tried to get the 1050 to come online several times. Let us know if it works.Īnyone have experience using A.09.01 in windows XP? Officially it only goes to Windows 2000, but for network security requirements (biometrics) we have to use XP. Considering the low price of the USB to HPIB converter, relative to the HPIB board, it may be worth looking into as it would allow you to use a modern computer to run the system (no issues with finding ISA or PCI slots). I have never tried to use them with such an early version of ChemStation (we have one running a 10 though using ChemStation A.10.02).

The 82357A (USB 1) and 82357B (USB 2.0) USB to GPIB interfaces may be an option for you. This is the only PCI based card for the A.06 version. *All 82350's are configured as an 82341 HPIB boards in the setup menu (don't ask why). I did set up a system under ChemStation Rev A.08.03 with the 82350B card and had it working just fine, but had to try several versions of the library files before I found one that worked.

Officially, HP ChemStation Revision A.06.03 does not support the 82350B HPIB board.
