Setting the configuration switches
There are 16 switches on the back of the controller. Figure 14 and Figure 15
show the switches and settings for five common types of communications.
When you are using ChemStation software, you must set the GPIB address
switches to a unique address. The address for the first sampler is usually set to
“8.” For a complete list of address switches, see Table 3.
