Keysight 11713D/E Operating and Service Manual
Configuring Remote Interface
This section briefly describes how to configure the GPIB, USB, and LAN remote interfaces.
Interface selection
You can choose to control the 11713D/E remotely using the GPIB, USB, or LAN interfaces.
For information on selecting and configuring the remote interface manually from the driver front
panel or remotely via virtual front panel, refer to
.
GPIB configuration
Each device on the GPIB (IEEE-488) interface must have a unique address. You can set the
11713D/E’s address to any value between 0 and 30. The attenuator/switch driver is shipped with a
default address set to 28. The GPIB address is stored in non-volatile memory and does not change
when the driver is switched off or after a remote interface reset.
For information on setting the GPIB address manually from the front panel, refer to
USB configuration
The USB interface requires no front panel or remote configuration. The USB cannot be changed —
it is set at the factory and is unique for each 11713D/E.
NOTE
For more detailed information on remote interface connectivity configuration,
refer to the
Keysight Technologies USB/LAN/GPIB Interfaces Connectivity
Guide
. If you have installed the IO Libraries Suite, you can access the
Connectivity Guide via the Keysight IO Libraries Control icon. Alternatively, you
can access the Connectivity Guide via the Web at
www.keysight.com/find/
connectivity
.
NOTE
The latest version of Keysight IO Libraries Suite can be downloaded from
www.keysight.com/find/iosuitedownload
. The Keysight Instrument Control
DVD, with the above software, is no longer shipped with Keysight instruments.
If you require a Keysight Instrument Control DVD, it can be ordered by
contacting your local Keysight Customer Contact Center.
NOTE
It is expected that most users will use the front panel keys to set up the remote
interfaces. The remote interface commands are provided for completeness (for
front panel operation).
NOTE
