Hi, 
The API (Application Programming Interface) is the same for all GPIB interfaces. You will use the same functions even if you're using the GPIB-ENET (Ethernet).  You don't have to change anything in your code. 
You should only check that the NI-488.2 driver supports the PCI-GPIB in the OS you're planning to use:

Hope this helps.
