3.1 Connecting Devices with GPIB Cables
The rear panel has connectors for connecting GPIB cables.
Up to 15 devices, including the controller, can be connected to one system. Connect
devices under the conditions described to the right of the diagram below.
Total cable length ≤20 m
Cable length between devices ≤4 m
Number of devices which can be connected ≤15
Mounting and dismounting of the GP-IB cable must be done after turning off the
power switch and pulling out the power cord from the socket. If the power remains
on, only signal common line may disconnected before the other lines, then AC leak
voltages are applied to the ICs, and there is a possibility that components such as ICs
in the interface unit will be damaged.
CAUTION
The GPIB cables must be connected before the power is
turned on.
