To Set the GPIB Address

Every device on the GPIB bus must have a unique address. If you need to change the GPIB address, turn the Agilent B2200 on and perform the following procedure. The new GPIB address is recognized only at power on. The Agilent B2200 leaves the factory with the GPIB address set to 22.

1.Press the Menu key.

2.Move the cursor to CONFIG, then press the Enter key.

3.Move the cursor to ADDRESS, then press the Enter key. The following message will appear on the LCD. XX will be 0 to 30.

GPIB Address = XX

4.Press the arrow key (up or down) to specify the desired GPIB address, then press the Enter key.

5.Press the Enter key twice.

6.Turn the Agilent B2200 off, and then turn it on again.

To Connect the GPIB Cable

To connect the instrument with a computer or peripheral device via GPIB (IEEE Std. 488), connect an GPIB cable between the GPIB connector on the instrument rear panel and the GPIB connector on the peripheral device.

Including the controller, a total of 15 GPIB interfaces can be connected on the same GPIB bus. The following are rules for connecting GPIB interfaces:

•If total number of interfaces ≤ 10:

Max. total cable length = number of interfaces ⋅ 2 m.

•If total number of interfaces > 10: Max. total cable length = 20 m.

•Maximum cable length between interfaces is 4 m.

•Star connection and cascade connection are allowed. Loop connection is not allowed.
