Are interrupts required for the NI-488.2 software?

Generally, plug-in interface cards, such as the PCI-GPIB, require interrupt resources in your computer. Remote interfaces, such as the GPIB-USB and GPIB-ENET products, do not require interrupt resources in your computer. There may be exceptions to this statement. Refer to the general readme file, Readme.txt, located on your installation CD or in the installation directory, for the latest interface options supported by the current version of NI-488.2.
