68.0. "3rd party IEEE" by KERNEL::MCCULLAGHA () Fri Sep 25 1992 11:27

Hi
	I have a customer,(BAe.), who is after a third party IEEE-488 driver
for the KAV30. He's running VAXELN v2.3.  Does anyone out there know a supplier,
and can give name, address, tel.no. etc.
		
		Thanks Alec

68.1	IEEE-Driver needs must be knows	EICMFG::EISENBARTH	`Wed Sep 30 1992 12:22`	17
	Alec, we had contact with National Instruments and they made indications to support a IEEE-488 on request. However, this may not be the status anymore. What I can do for you is to request such I driver from one of hte VMEbus suppliers participating in the DECrealtime program. They come together next week and get trained on ELN and DECrti drivers/icons. In order to pick the right product, I would need to know more about the expected performance (DMA yes/no), the type of functionality your customer needs (listener only ?) and the supplier of choice (if this exists). Regards, Wolfgang
68.2	Straight from the horses..........................	KERNEL::MCCULLAGHA	`Wed Sep 30 1992 16:05`	8
	Hi wolfgang Thanks for your response. A quick update: BAe believe they are running VAXELN v 4.3, they require an IEEE 488 card with a driver, an 'off the peg' solution. The contact at BAe is John Westmorland, whom I am led to believe you have had dealings with re the KAV30. To save time and possibly many notes to this topic he has elected to call you directly. Hope this is ok. Regards Alec
