4-2 Controlling Multiple SourceMeters Series 2600 System SourceMeters User’s Manual

How do I set up the TSP-Link system?
Up to 64 TSP-Link-enabled instruments (e.g., Series 2600 SourceMeters) can be
connected together to form a TSP-Link system.
Step 1: Connect the TSP-Link system
Reference Refer to “Connections” in Section 9 of the Series 2600 Reference
Manual for more information on TSP-Link connections.
A connection example for an expanded system is shown in Figure 4-1. All the
TSP-Link-enabled instruments in the system are daisy-chained together using
LAN crossover cables. In this example, the unit connected to the PC is the Master
and the other units are its Slaves. Note that the Master does not have to be
assigned as Node 1, nor does it have to be at the end of the node chain.

NOTE The PC is not needed for

Step 2: Assign node numbers
Reference Refer to “Initialization” in Section 9 of the Series 2600 Reference
Manual for more information on assigning node numbers.
Each instrument in the TSP-Link system must have a unique node number
assigned to it. The node number for each instrument is stored in its non-volatile
memory and will not be lost when the instrument is turned off.
The TSP-Link node number is set from the MAIN MENU of each instrument and is
summarized in
Table 4-1.
