8.4.2 Setting the GPIB Address
The instrument's GPIB is addressed in a single address mode with no secondary address; the default
GPIB address is 8. Users can set their own GPIB address (0~30), and the address value can be
automatically saved in non-volatile memory. In a GPIB bus system, it is not allowed to assign the same
address as other devices or controllers (computers).
