Configuring the Remote Interface
This power supply is shipped with both a GPIB (IEEE-4888) interface and an
RS-232 interface. The GPIB interface is selected when the power supply is
shipped from the factory. Only one interface can be enabled at a time. To exit
the I/O configuration mode without any changes, press key until the ‘‘
NO
CHANGE
’’ message is displayed.
• You can set the GPIB address, parity, and baud rate from the front panel
only.
• The current selection is highlighted for emphasis. All other choices are
dimmed.
• The interface selection is stored in non-volatile memory, and does not
change when power has been off or after a power-on reset (
*RST
command).
GPIB Configuration
1 Turn on the remote configuration mode.
If “
RS-232
” appears, select “
GPIB / 488
” by turning the knob.
2 Select the GPIB address.
You can set the power supply’s address to any value between 0 and 30. The
factory setting is address ‘‘5’’.
3 Save the change and exit the menu.
Note
Your computer's GPIB interface card has its own address. Be sure to avoid
using the computer's address for any instrument on the interface bus.
Agilent Technologies GPIB interface cards generally use address ‘‘21’’.
