Abstract :
The design of an IEEE-488.2 (GPIB) system which uses a wireless infrared link is presented. The wireless link provided mobility into laboratories where GPIB instrumentation is used. The data transmission is by serial link. This type of system presents some advantages over conventional cable systems. Besides, when IRED is used, the radiation is negligible for the users and harmless. The optoelectrical GPIB interface uses commercial IREDs and photodiodes
