GPIB Interface Configuration
The GPIB connector on the rear panel connects your power
supply to the computer and other GPIB devices.
Chapter 1,
“Getting Started” lists the cables that are available from
Keysight Technologies. A GPIB system can be connected
together in any configuration (star, linear, or both) as long
as the following rules are observed:
• The total number of devices including the computer is not
more than 15.
• The total length of all the cables used is not more than
2 m times the number of devices connected together, up
to a maximum of 20 m.
Do not stack more than three connector blocks together on
any GPIB connector. Make sure that all connectors are fully
seated and that the lock screws are firmly finger tightened.
IEEE-488 states that you should exercise caution if your individual cable
lengths exceed 4 m.
