     Dusting off the brain cobwebs:

     There are two flavors of HP-IB, CIO and NIO.  The 932 was a hybrid
     system that supported both CIO and NIO.  The 937 is strictly NIO.
     Assuming(I hate it when I do that) that the card you're pulling from
     the 932 has the NIO Precision Bus adapter, the 'correct' part number
     is A1747A.  The CIO HP-IB card is 27113A.
