GPIB Connector (Optional)
The power supply can be programmed from a remote terminal using a
General Purpose Interface Bus (GPIB) interface.
The GPIB interface is an 8-bit parallel data bus having a host of bus
commands for synchronization and up to one megabyte data transfer
rate. Use standard IEEE-486, 26 AWG GPIB cable up to 3 m length.
GPIB Pin Description
The GPIB port is a 21-pin, special GPIB female connector. Table 5-8
identifies the pin names and describes the pin functions.

Communication with Your Device
This section provides information on selecting the GPIB interface as the
communication port used on the power supply, and it also provides an
example of how commands can be sent and received. The details of the
IEEE 488.2 and SCPI status reporting register structures and a complete
list of commands available can be found later in this section.
