To connect to a controller
You can control the 1670G-series logic analyzer with another
instrument, such as a computer running a program with embedded
analyzer commands. The steps below outline the general procedure for
connecting to a controller using GPIB or RS-232-C.
1Turn off both instruments, and connect the cable.
If you are using RS-232-C, the cable must be a null-modem cable. If you
do not have a null-modem cable, you can purchase an adapter at any
electronics supply store.
2Turn on the logic analyzer and then the controller.
3In the System External I/O menu, select the field under
Connected To: in the Controller box and set it appropriately.
4Select the appropriate Settings field and configure the values in
the pop-up menu to be compatible with the controller.
