Connecting GPIB instruments
You can use the 4200A-SCS to control one or more external instruments using the IEEE-488 general
purpose instrument bus (GPIB). An example of typical instruments used in a test system with the
4200A-SCS are a switching system and an external C-V meter.
To avoid electrical interference, use only shielded IEEE-488 connecting cables such as the Keithley
Instruments 7007-1 and 7007-2.
The following figure shows how to connect GPIB instruments to the 4200A-SCS.
