Set up the IEEE 488 Port
Setting up the Product on the IEEE 488 bus requires setting the bus address and
the connection to the controller. To set up for IEEE 488 bus control:
1. Turn off the Product.
2. Connect the Product to the controller using an IEEE 488 cable. Fluke
Calibration recommends shielded cables Y8021 (1 m), Y8022 (2 m), or
Y8023 (4 m).
3. Turn the Product power on.
4. Push the Setup softkey.
5. Use the cursor keys or rotary knob to highlight Interface and either push the
Select softkey or push in the rotary knob.
6. If the Active Interface selection does not already read IEEE 488, use the
cursor keys or rotary knob to highlight Active Interface and either push the
Select softkey or push in the rotary knob. Otherwise, skip to step 9.
7. Use the cursor keys or rotary knob to highlight IEEE 488 and either push the
Select softkey or push in the rotary knob.
8. Push Exit to return to the Interface setup menu.
9. If the IEEE 488 Address selection does not already indicate the desired
address, use the cursor keys or rotary knob to highlight IEEE 488 Address
and either push Select or push in the rotary knob. Otherwise, skip to step 11.
Note
The IEEE address is set at the factory to 2, and remains at 2 until changed.
10. Push either the UP or DOWN softkey to change the address. The address
can be set between 00 and 30.
11. Push the Exit softkey.
Use the USB Port for Remote Control
Use this procedure is to control the Product from a terminal or a computer with
the USB interface.
The Product can be controlled with a USB (Universal Serial Bus) interface. A
Personal Computer (PC) or other controlling device with a USB interface (USB
type-A connector), as well as a standard USB A-B cable is necessary. The USB
interface must be selected from the Product system menu
(Setup>Interface>Active interface). The USB interface is seen as a virtual
COM port so the baud rate must be set on the Product and PC. The Product is
equipped with a USB type B connector.
Make these settings on your PC for proper operation:
Baud rate Set to the same as the Product
Data bits 8 Stop bits
1 Parity None
