Agilent 34980A Low-cost alternative to VXI & PXI platforms

The 34980A is an eight-slot mainframe with a built-in 6.5 digit DMM. You can choose between a variety of plug-in modules. These include switching from DC to 20 GHz, digital I/O, D/A converters, and counter-totalizer functionality. One mainframe can accommodate up to 560 2-wire multiplexer channels or 1024 2-wire cross matrix points. The 34980A is easily integrated into an automated test or data acquisition syatem with the included USB, Ethernet and GPIB interfaces.

The 34980A includes a built-in graphical web interface that provides remote access and control of the instrument via any Java-enabled web browser. Using the Web interface, you can set up, troubleshoot, and maintain your system remotely.

View and modify instrument setup
Open, close, or monitor switches
Setup and initiate scans
Send SCPI commands
Define and execute switch sequences
View error queue
Get status reports on relay counts, firmware revisions, and more

The internal DMM is mounted inside the mainframe and does not consume any of the eight user-available slots. It gives you the flexibility to measure 11 types of inputs:

Temperature with thermocouples, RTDs, or thermistors (with 34921A)
DC and AC voltage
2- and 4-wire resistance
Frequency and period
DC and AC current

NEW! Agilent BenchLink Data Logger Software - Free download from HERE.
The Agilent BenchLink Data Logger software for the 34980A provides a convenient way to collect and analyze your data. The software is a Windows based application that uses a familiar spreadsheet environment to define measurement data to be collected. The tab-based format makes it easy to set up and initiate scans. Simply identify the measurements you want to acquire, initiate the process, and see the data displayed real-time. More Info...

NEW! Agilent BenchLink Data Logger Pro Software
The new 34832A Benchlink Data Logger Pro software goes beyond the free Benchlink software that is included with the 34980A. Data Logger Pro is a valuable tool to set up multiple scans, initiate actions based on user defined limits, collect and analyze data in a Windows® environment. Details here.
