2-8. Connect Auxiliary Units
The 6100B and 6105A instruments are Master units capable of controlling any
combination of up to three Auxiliary units. The 6100B and 6105A Master units can be
configured as Master or Auxiliary but the 6101B or 6106A can only operate as Auxiliary
units.
Each Auxiliary unit provides an additional phase of voltage and current. Control
connections are made by interconnection cable part number 2002080 supplied with each
instrument. Figure 2-1 shows the layout of connections on the rear of a Master
instrument. 6101B and 6106A have one Auxiliary Control Input.
The older 6101A can also be added as Auxiliary units to 6100B and 6105A Master units.
When upgraded to firmware issue 4.10 or greater the older 6100A Master can control any
of 6105A, 6106A, 6100B, and 6101B as Auxiliary units.
