Introduction
The TAMS HP-IB Interface is intended to add IEEE-488 capabilities to any computer
with a PCI bus.
The TAMS card takes full advantage of the PCI bus performance and delivers the
highest possible level of throughput.
The TAMS Interface supports both the 3.3v and 5v PCI specifications as a universal
card.
Thanks to HP’s software architecture and the design of the TAMS driver, once the
driver is loaded (which is done once at installation) the TAMS card can be used in any
application without requiring more computer overhead or any changes to code
developed for HP’s HP-IB cards.
Whether you are using HP-VEE, HPBASIC/UX, or programming in C with the TAMS I/O
Libraries, your code will now run at full performance without modification.
