INTERNATIONAL POWER
CORD OPTIONS
Instruments
are
shipped with the detachable power-
cord option ordered
by
the customer. Descriptive informa-
tion about the international power-cord options
is
provided
in
Section

Option
10
provides a GPIB
(General
Purpose Interface
Bus) communications interface
and,
with the 2230, addi-
tional memory.
The
interface implemented conforms to the
specifications contained
in
IEEE Standard Digital Interface
for Programmable Instrumentation (ANSI/IEEE Std 488-
1978).
It also complies with a Tektronix Standard relating
to GPIB Codes, Formats, Conventions
and
Features.
Operating information for the Option 10 GPIB interface
is
given
in
the COMMUNICATION OPTION OPERATION
subsection of this section.
OPTION 12
Option
12
provides
an
RS-232-C serial communications
interface
and,
with the 2230, additional memory. The
interface implemented conforms to RS-232-C
specifications.
The
option provides both
DTE
and
DCE
capability to
aid
in
hooking
up
the various types of
printers, plotters, personal computers,
and
modems that
may
be
encountered. Operating information for the Option
12 RS-232-C interface
is
given
in
the COMMUNICATION
OPTION OPERATION subsection of this section. Informa-
tion regarding RS-232-C interconnection cables
is
given
in
Appendix B of this manual.
OPTION 33
Option
33,
the Travel
Line
option, provides impact pro-
tection
needed
for rough industrial
and
service
environments.
When
the instrument
is
ordered with Option
33,
it comes equipped with the Accessory Pouch, the
Front
Panel
cover, shock-absorbing rubber guards
mounted
on
the front
and
rear of the cabinet,
an
easy-to-
use
power-cord wrap,
and
a carrying strap.
COMMUNICATIONS OPTION OPERATION
The
communications options allow remote waveform acquistion
and
the transfer of waveform data both to
and
from the
oscilloscope. Waveform data
may
also
be
directly output to compatible digital printers or plotters for producing hardcopies
of the displayed signals.
Remote control
and
waveform transfer
is
accomplished
by
messages sent to the oscilloscope
via
one of the com-
munication option interfaces.
The
Option
10
interface con-
forms to
GPIB
IEEE-488
bus
standard
and
the Option
12
interface conforms to the standard for RS-232-C serial
communication. Both options also conform to Tektronix
standards
on
Codes, Formats, Conventions,
and
Features.
In
general, messages to the oscilloscope sent
via
the
communication options
have
one
of the
following purposes:
7-2
1.
Query the state of the oscilloscope.
2.
Query the result of a measurement made.
3.
Set or change the instrument's operating mode.
4.
Request waveform data transfer.
