Connecting Multimeters and Signal Generators

Figure 2-10 shows how to connect the analog bus connector and the digital bus handshake cable between multiple multiplexer modules and the HP E1326B Multimeter. Use the cables shipped with the multiplexer modules to make the connections.

Stand-alone multimeters and signal generators can also be connected to the tree terminals or the direct terminals. Connections to the tree terminals and the direct terminals are made on the terminal modules. If the multimeter has "Voltmeter Complete" and "External Trigger" ports that use an open collector TTL pulse, you can use a custom cable to connect it to the digital bus for triggering (see “ Digital Bus and Triggering” in Chapter 1).
