RS-232↔IEEE 488 INTERFACE CONVERTER

3. Getting Started

3.1 Inspection

The interface converter was carefully inspected, both mechanically and electrically, prior to shipment. When you receive it, carefully unpack all items from the shipping carton and check for any obvious signs of damage that may have occurred during shipment. Immediately report any damage found to the shipping agent. Remember to retain all shipping materials in the event that shipment back to the factory becomes necessary.

Every interface converter is shipped with the following:

•RS-232↔IEEE 488 Interface Converter

•This instruction manual

•Power supply

3.2 Configuration

Three DIP switches internal to the interface converter set the configuration of the interface.

NOTE

Selectable functions are read only at power-on and should only be set prior to applying power to the interface. The following figures illustrate the factory-default conditions, which are:

Serial Port:	IEEE:
9600 Baud	Mode = IEEE 488 Controller
8 Data Bits	Address = 10
2 Stop Bits	Bus Terminator = LF; EOI Disabled
No Parity	Talk-Back on Terminator Enabled
Serial Terminator = LF	Talk-Back on Timeout Enabled
Echo Disabled
RTS/CTS Handshake
