Remote Interface Configuration

Remote Interface Selection

The instrument is shipped with both an HP-IB (IEEE-488) interface and an RS-232 interface. Only one interface can be enabled at a time. The HP-IB interface is selected when the instrument is shipped from the factory.

∙The interface selection is stored in non-volatilememory, and does not change when power has been off, after a Factory Reset (*RST command), or after an Instrument Preset (SYSTem:PRESet command).

∙If you select the HP-IB interface, you must select a unique address for the instrument. The HP-IB address is displayed on the front panel when you turn on the instrument.

∙If you select the RS-232 interface, you must also set the baud rate, parity, and flow control mode for the instrument. “RS-232” is

 

displayed on the front panel when you turn on the instrument.
