Example: Configuring a Paired Drive Channel
The following example illustrates the sequence of commands used to
configure a paired drive channel. In the example, the 34945A is installed
in slot 4 of the mainframe, and operations are directed to channel 1 on
remote module 3.
The drive source must be disabled before configuring either the channel
pairing or the pulse mode. The channel is then paired and the pulse width
set to 15 ms. Power supply recovery time and settling time is then set to
12 ms and 10 ms, respectively. Verify is then enabled. The default behavior
for the switches is set to
OPEN and TTL drive using an EXTernal power
supply. Finally, the channel is closed.
