MPM-210H OPERATION MANUAL
20 / 59
5. Remote Control
Before inserting and extracting the connectors for the communication
cables, make sure to turn off power to the device to avoid damaging the
device.
The MPM-210H exchanges information with controller by using GPIB, TCPIP or
RS232 communication.
5.1. GPIB Communication
The MPM-210H supports IEEE488 interface. When receiving a command, it uses
EOI but not EOS. When sending a command, it uses EOI and EOS<CR>.
Default value of GPIB Address is 16.
Connect the 24-pin GPIB cable to the GPIB connector on the rear panel. The
total extension of the connected cable shall be 20 m or less. The cable length
between each device must be 2 m or less. At most, 15 devices can be
connected.
Do not disconnect or connect a cable from and to devices connected with
GP-IB cable, do not short-circuit the connector, and do not turn ON/OFF the
devices. Otherwise, actions may be stopped or errors may occur, causing a
failure. In the event of such failure, reset all the connected devices, and
then activate the system once again. When configuring a system, remove
the unused device or unnecessary cable and return to the original setup.
