Introduction
This section contains detailed information on remotely programming the Model 2290-5 over the IEEE-
488 (GPIB) interface. Any computer that supports the IEEE-488 bus may be used to program the
instrument. The Model 2290-5 supports the IEEE-488.1 (1978) interface standard, as well as the
required common commands of the IEEE-488.2 (1987) standard.
The cabling distance between the controller and instrument hub with GPIB is limited to 9 meters (30
feet). In a system connected with GPIB, you can have 15 instruments attached to each controller.
Connect GPIB cables to your instrument
To connect an instrument to the GPIB, use a cable equipped with standard GPIB connectors, as
shown below.
