B Hardware Interfaces
This section covers hardware-related topics, like pin assignment of the IEC 625/IEEE
488 interface.
The remote control interfaces are described in details in
All other interfaces are described in
Chapter 2.2, "Instrument Tour"

Option: R&S
SMAB-B86.

Bus lines
●
Data bus with 8 lines D0 to D7:
The transmission is bit-parallel and byte-serial in the ASCII/ISO code. D0 is the
least significant bit, D7 the most significant bit.
●
Control bus with five lines:
IFC
(Interface Clear): active LOW resets the interfaces of the instruments connec-
ted to the default setting.
ATN
(Attention): active LOW signals the transmission of interface messages, inac-
tive HIGH signals the transmission of device messages.
