3. At the Instrument I/O on this PC area, select GPIB0, and click the Change
Properties... button. Keysight 82350 PCI GPIB Interface - GPIB0 window

4. Change the GPIB Address value.
5. Remove the check from the Auto-discover instruments connected to this

NOTE For the GPIB connection of this instrument, use an GPIB interface, Keysight
82350B (for PCI bus), Keysight 82357A/B (USB/GPIB), or National Instrument
GPIB-USB-HS.
For using an USB/GPIB interface, it is recommended to set the GPIB address of this
instrument to an even number. The USB/GPIB interface might cause serial poll error
intermittently due to the intrinsic communication scheme differences. It is reported
that using an even GPIB address sometimes significantly decreases the chance of
the error.
