5 Parts and Controls
Back Panel
Fan
The fan is necessary to keep the internal components cool. Always make sure
air can flow freely behind and around the instrument.
Serial Connector
The serial connector is a 9-pin subminiature D type located on the back panel.
The serial (RS-232) interface can be used to transmit measurements and control
the operation of the 1575/1590.
Printer Connector
The 25-pin subminiature D parallel connector can be used to connect the
1575/1590 to a printer to record measurements or print calibration reports.
IEEE-488 Connector
The 1575/1590 can be connected to an IEEE-488 bus (GPIB) through this con-
nector on the back panel. The IEEE-488 bus can be used to read measurements
and control the operation of the instrument.
Analog Output
The two binding posts on the back panel are used for the analog output. This
provides a DC potential between +5V and -5V that indicates the value of
measurements.
Scanner Connector
The 15-pin connector on the back panel can be used to interface with the Hart
2575 or 2590 Scanner. It provides power and digital control signals for the
scanner. Operation of the 1575/1590 with the 2575 or 2590 Scanner is ex-
plained in Section 10, 2575 Scanner or Section 11, 2590 Scanner respectively.
