- GPIB, IEEE-488 Communication
The Tektronix VX4521 Advanced Resource Manager Module is a printed circuit board assembly for use in the slot 0 position of a mainframe conforming to the VXlbus Specification, such as the VX1400 C-size mainframe used in the Tektronix IAC System. It conforms to the VXlbus System Specification for a Resource Manager, Slot 0 Device, and IEEE-488 lnterface Device for a C size module. The VX4521 performs three functions critical to the proper operation of a VXlbus system:
• It is the VMEbus system controller required by the VMEbus Specification.
• It provides both the VXIbus Resource Manager and Slot 0 functions required by the VXIbus Specification.
• It acts as the communications interface between the station computer and the VXibus chassis using the IEEE-488 General Purpose Interface Bus (GPIB).
As the VMEbus Controller, the VX4521 Module provides the bus arbiter, interrupt daisy chain driver, bus time out, and system clock driver. It is also a VMEbus master. Since the VX4521 makes all VMEbus operations transparent to the user, no VMEbus knowledge is necessary to operate the VX4521 or any VXlbus system in which it is installed. The IEEE publication IEEE-1014 (1987) offers more information on VMEbus operation.
The VX4521 Tektronix Advanced Resource Manager may still be available for purchase and support from Artisan Technology Group beyond End-Of-Life (EOL) by the manufacturer (OEM).
