raspberry pi gpib vxi11 server

[dxl]

Hi,

just hacked up a silly prototype to export a gpib bus via VXI-11 on a raspbery pi. I always wanted to have something like a E5810A or GPIB ENET/1000. This allows running your test equipment in the basement, while controlling them from your cozy livingroom.

my setup is:

[GPIB-Bus] <-----> [GPIB-USB-HS] <-----> [RPi] <---- (Ethernet/VXI-11) ----> Windows/Linux PC

instead of the GPIB-USB-HS every card supported by linux-gpib should work. The keysight software accepts this as a VXI-11 interface, as the screenshot shows.

The code is here: https://github.com/svenschnelle/python-vxi11-server/commits/gpib_gateway
