Configuring a GPIB Interface
Each device on the GPIB (IEEE–488) interface must have a unique
address. You can set the multimeter’s address to any integral value
between 0 and 30. The address is set to “22” when the instrument is
shipped from the factory.
•
Your computer’s GPIB interface card has its own address. Be sure to
avoid using
the computer’s
address for any instrument on the interface
bus.
•
The GPIB address is stored in non–volatile memory, and does not
change when power has been off, after a Factory Reset (
*RST
)
command, or after an Instrument Preset (
SYSTem:PRESet
) command.
•
