Electromagnetic Compatibility Guidelines
This hardware has been tested and found to comply with the applicable regulatory requirements
and limits for electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) as indicated in the hardware’s Declaration
of Conformity (DoC)1. These requirements and limits are designed to provide reasonable
2|ni.com |GPIB Hardware Installation Guide and Specifications
protection against harmful interference when the hardware is operated in the intended
electromagnetic environment. In special cases, for example when either highly sensitive or noisy
hardware is being used in close proximity, additional mitigation measures may have to be
employed to minimize the potential for electromagnetic interference.
While this hardware is compliant with the applicable regulatory EMC requirements, there is no
guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. To minimize the potential
for the hardware to cause interference to radio and television reception or to experience
unacceptable performance degradation, install and use this hardware in strict accordance with
the instructions in the hardware documentation and the DoC1.
If this hardware does cause interference with licensed radio communications services or other
nearby electronics, which can be determined by turning the hardware off and on, you are
encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
• Reorient the antenna of the receiver (the device suffering interference).
• Relocate the transmitter (the device generating interference) with respect to the receiver.
• Plug the transmitter into a different outlet so that the transmitter and the receiver are on
different branch circuits.
Some hardware may require the use of a metal, shielded enclosure (windowless version) to meet
the EMC requirements for special EMC environments such as, for marine use or in heavy
industrial areas. Refer to the hardware’s user documentation and the DoC1 for product
installation requirements.
When the hardware is connected to a test object or to test leads, the system may become more
sensitive to disturbances or may cause interference in the local electromagnetic environment.
Operation of this hardware in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference. Users are
required to correct the interference at their own expense or cease operation of the hardware.
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by National Instruments could void the user’s
right to operate the hardware under the local regulatory rules.
GPIB-USB Interfaces
Caution Ground loops create an electric shock hazard and can cause damage to
your GPIB-USB hardware, your computer, and other system components. A ground
loop can occur when your computer and one or more connected instruments do not
share the same ground potential.
1 The Declaration of Conformity (DoC) contains important EMC compliance information and instructions
for the user or installer. To obtain the DoC for this product, visit ni.com/certification, search by
model number or product line, and click the appropriate link in the Certification column.
GPIB Hardware Installation Guide and Specifications |© National Instruments |3
To prevent damage to your GPIB-USB hardware and other system components, do
any of the following:
• Ensure that your system and all instruments connected to it share the same ground
potential. This eliminates the possibility of voltage differential running through
your system.
• Use a GPIB-120B Bus Isolator/Expander to isolate GPIB systems and expand the
GPIB interface up to 28 devices.
• Use a pair of GPIB-140A High-Speed Fiber-Optic Bus Extenders. This
transforms the GPIB signals at each end into fiber optic signals, allowing each
unit to reside at a different ground potential.
• Use an isolated USB hub.
Complete the following steps to install your interface:
1. Connect the USB connector from the GPIB-USB interface to an available USB Type A port
on your computer.
2. Before connecting the GPIB-USB interface to GPIB devices, ensure that the computer and
the GPIB devices are at the same ground potential. The GPIB-USB interface connects
directly to most GPIB devices without requiring a GPIB cable.
3. If your computer is already running, the operating system automatically detects the GPIB
interface. Otherwise, the GPIB interface is detected when you start your computer.

LED Signaling
The GPIB-USB-HS controller uses two LEDs to indicate status and activity.
When you connect the GPIB-USB-HS controller, the READY LED lights either green or amber
once the driver is installed and detected. Table 1 summarizes the functionality of the LEDs on
the GPIB-USB-HS hardware.
The GPIB-USB-HS+ controller uses a multicolored LED to indicate status and activity. Table 2
summarizes the functionality of the LEDs on the GPIB-USB-HS+ hardware.
Table 1. GPIB-USB-HS LED Descriptions
LED Description
READY Green indicates that the GPIB-USB-HS is plugged into a USB full-speed
(USB 1.1) port.
Amber indicates that the GPIB-USB-HS is plugged into a USB Hi-Speed
(USB 2.0) port.
ACTIVE Indicates activity on the GPIB bus.

Amber/Green
The GPIB-USB-HS+ is not ready to use. You must install (or re-install)
the NI-488.2 driver before using the GPIB-USB-HS+.
Note: Windows 8 and later suspend power to a USB device that does not
have a driver attached. If the LED does not light, try reinstalling the
NI-488.2 driver.
Steady Green Indicates that the GPIB-USB-HS+ is plugged into a USB full-speed
(USB 1.1) port.
Steady Amber Indicates that the GPIB-USB-HS+ is plugged into a USB Hi-Speed
(USB 2.0) port.
Blinking Amber
or Green
Indicates activity on the GPIB bus or that the GPIB Analyzer is
capturing.

Caution Electrostatic discharge can damage several components on your GPIB
board. To avoid such damage in handling your board, touch the antistatic plastic
package to a metal part of your computer chassis before removing the board from the
package.
Complete the following steps to install your interface:
1. Make sure that your computer is powered off. Keep the computer plugged in so that it
remains grounded while you install the GPIB hardware.
2. Remove the top cover (or other access panels) to gain access to the computer expansion
slots.
3. Find an unused expansion slot in your computer. Your PCI board can be plugged into either
a 3.3 V or 5 V, 32- or 64-bit PCI slot. Your PCI Express card can be plugged into a x1, x4,
x8, or x16 PCI Express slot.
4. Remove the corresponding slot cover on the back panel of the computer.
5. Insert the GPIB board into the slot with the GPIB connector sticking out of the opening on
the back panel, as shown in Figure 2. It might be a tight fit, but do not force the board into
place.
Note Your PCI Express board may be larger than the one shown in the figure.

PXI-GPIB and PXI-8232
Caution Electrostatic discharge can damage several components on your GPIB
board. To avoid electrostatic damage when you handle the board, touch the antistatic
plastic package to a metal part of your system chassis before removing the board from
the package.
Complete the following steps to install your PXI card:
1. Make sure that your PXI or CompactPCI chassis is powered off. Keep the PXI or
CompactPCI chassis plugged in so that it remains grounded while you install your
PXI card.
2. Choose an unused PXI or CompactPCI 5 V peripheral slot. For maximum performance,
your PXI card has an onboard DMA controller that can only be used if the board is installed
in a slot that supports bus arbitration, or bus master cards. National Instruments
recommends installing your PXI card in such a slot. If you install the board in a non-master
slot, you must disable your PXI card’s onboard DMA controller using the board-level call
ibdma. Refer to the NI-488.2 Help for a complete description of ibdma.
3. Remove the filler panel for the peripheral slot you have chosen.
4. Touch a metal part on your chassis to discharge any static electricity that might be on your
clothes or body.
