Abstract
For large test systems, it is rare to find 100% coverage of all instrumentation needs in a single platform, making integration of multiple platforms an absolute necessity. This paper and presentation covers the common hardware and software techniques used to integrate PXI systems with VXI, GPIB, USB, and Ethernet/LXI instrumentation platforms. Considerations will include implications of bus interface selection, software driver models such as VISA and IVI, and hardware synchronization options between platforms
