Hi,
I have bought a GC HP 5890. I would like to connect it to a computer. I have chemstation G2070AA, version A.09.01. I believe that I would need to put in the computer HP-IB card model 82335. Any body could tell me if I am right?
I have seend different HP-IB card model 82335, but I believe they are just the same, but different version.
Best wishes,
Marcos

Agilent website has a chart that states that A.09.x must use an 82341 or 82350 HPIB/GPIB board, not an 82335. My experience agrees with that, as you'd need a Pentium 3 or better to run the A.09. 82335 was for Win 3.x and Windows 95, and for versions up to A.06

Hi, Thanks for the informatión.
I have tried to find that chart, could you send my the link? I have find one chart for UV/VIS chemstation compatibility, where it seems that only 82350 would work with A.09, but not 82341. It seems, also, that only version 82350C would be useful
Do you have experience with 82341 card?
Best wishes,
Marcos

Yes, we use a few 82341 and 82350 cards. They seem to work the same. You need to configure GPIB "Libraries" and set up the card manually as stated in the installation instructions, type in "hp82341" and set the bus address (whatever that is) to 30. For the 82350 card you must also type in "hp82341" even though the card is 82350 (go figure) and set bus address to 30.

Hi,
Thanks a lot. I have just bought the card in eBay. Hopefully I would be able to install everything properly. May be, I would need further assitance in the future, as there are many components to join, and I do not have all manuals. Well, if everything goes fine, I would give one last post with all the steps I have followed to control de GC 5890.
Best wishes,
Marcos
