Allcommands sent to the 1529 through the serial interfacemust be terminated
with a carriage return or linefeed character.
8.2.2 GPIB Communications
The GPIB interfaceallows the Model 1529 to be connected to an IEEE-488 bus
along withother instruments. A system controller can remotely control the op-
eration of theModel 1529 and read measurements.
8.2.2.1 Capability
The Model1529 GPIB interface conforms to standard IEEE-488.2, 1992. Its
capabilities are identified as SH1, AH1, T6, L4, SR1, DC1, and E2. The inter-
faceh as the capabilities of talk, listen, serial poll, and device clear.There is n o
capability for talk-only,listen-only, extended talk or listen, parallel poll, re-
mote-local control, or trigger nor can it act as a controller.The IEEE-488 com-
mands GET,GTL, LLO, and REN are accepted without error but ignored.
8.2.2.2 Connection
The IEEE-488 port is located on the back of the 1529. Use a standard
IEEE-488 cable to connectto your GPIB controller. A shielded cable should be
used to preventEM emission.
8.2.2.3 Device Setup
The Model1529 system must be set up to respond to the controller address.
Refer to Section 7.5.1.3, GPIB, for setting address and other parameters for the
IEEE-488 port.
8.3 Interface Commands8.3.1 Command Summary
An alphabeticallisting of the commands implemented by the 1529 are shown
in Table3 starting on page 81. These commands can be used with either serial,
IR, or IEEE-488 communications ports.
