The Agilent E1482B VXIbus Extender is a C-size, 1-slot, register-based VXI
module. It connects your external controller to the VXI backplane via the MXIbus
interface (E1489C). The extender is also used to create multiple-mainframe
systems for either external or embedded controller applications.
When used with external workstation controllers, the VXI extender plugs into
slot 0 of the mainframe and is connected via the MXIbus Econtroller cable to the
EISA/ISA-to-MXIbus Interface (E1489C) in the HP-UX controller. For multiple VXI
mainframe systems, one VXIbus extender module is installed into each mainframe
and these are connected together via MXIbus cables in a daisy-chain
configuration.
