Setting the Module Address Switch | HP WaterSkis E1312A instruction

Setting the Module Address Switch

The logical address switch factory setting is 24. Valid addresses are from 1 to 254 for static configuration (the address you set on the switch) and address 255 for dynamic configuration. The HP E1312A and HP E1412A support dynamic configuration of the address. This means the address is set programmatically by the resource manager when it encounters a module with address 255 that supports dynamic configuration.

If you install more than one multimeter, each module must have a different logical address. If you use a VXIbus command module, the logical address must be a multiple of eight (e.g., 32, 40, 48, etc.) Each instrument must have a unique secondary address which is the logical address divided by eight.

Note When using an HP E1405A/B or HP E1406A as the VXIbus resource manager with SCPI commands, the multimeter’s address switch value must be a multiple of 8.
