Yep, it's a valid version.
I just edited the original post with a link to Google drive with all the FAS versions I have.
These are the install files, so they are copied to floppy disk and installed on the PC used for calibration which unpacks all the actual software and config files.

OK, so far so good, but now comes the question: is there any connection between this NI card and the above mentioned CEC488/KPC488.2 cards for which we have the SDK or they are unrelated to our stuff ?
TERRA Operative:
AFAIK, the Tek FAS will only see the NI GPIB-PCII/IIA cards. I've never tried anything else to see. I only have an IOtech ISA GPIB card (a Personal488, GP488B version) besides the PCII/IIA one.
If I can get my hands on a CEC488/KPC488.2 card, I can test it, but may be difficult here in Japan.
Also, I added links to some programmers manuals to the first post too, might give us some ideas.

Is there a SDK for these NI cards as well, as for the CEC488/KPC488.2, if so, where ? I'll enjoy having the headers and LIBs.

Hmm, after a few edits to this post, this is as close as I got:
https://knowledge.ni.com/KnowledgeArticleDetails?id=kA00Z0000019QOfSAM&l=en-US
https://www.ni.com/docs/en-US/bundle/ni-488.2-feature/page/programming-with-ni-4882-software.html#
I swear I was able to download drivers before, but not sure on an SDK.
Ah ha!
https://download.ni.com/#support/gpib/doswin3/gpib-pcii.iia/488.2/
Also drivers I am using are attached to this post.
DC1MC:
The DOS drivers and SDK for NI cards are here:

more specifically here:

the FTP server does not allow anonymous login anymore :(
Now let's see what goodies are there >:D
