RS-232↔IEEE 488 INTERFACE CONVERTER

3.7 Feature Selections

The functions of the remaining switches are dependent on the mode selected. A brief description of each of these features follows. You should refer to the listed sections for additional information.

3.7.1CONTROLLER FEATURES

In the IEEE Controller (RS-232-to-IEEE 488 Converter) mode, SW1-7 is used to determine whether the interface should, after sending the IEEE bus terminators, address the attached bus device to talk. The factory default is Talk-Back On Terminator enabled.

SW2-2 selects whether the interface converter should address the attached bus device to talk when the interface converter has nothing more to send to that device. The factory default is Talk-Back On Timeout enabled.

Refer to Chapter 4 for complete details on these features.
