- One-slot C-size VXI command module with Slot 0 and resource-manager capability
- GPIB and RS-232 host connectivity with support for MXIbus system configurations
- Real-time clock, VXI trigger resources, CLK10 support, and expandable memory
E1406A acts as the embedded command and communication module for a VXI mainframe rather than as a stand-alone measurement instrument.
It can provide Slot 0 timing and resource management while commanding message-based VXI devices and linking the chassis to GPIB or RS-232 control.
Before replacement, archive startup and configuration files, then verify chassis slot, controller ownership, addresses, serial settings, trigger/clock routing, installed RAM, firmware, and host software.
Availability, condition, price, and shipping time for E1406A are confirmed during quotation.
