Remote Interface Selection - Agilent Technologies 33250A User Manual

Remote Interface Selection

The instrument is shipped with both a GPIB (IEEE-488) interface and
an RS-232 interface. Only one interface can be enabled at a time.
When shipped from the factory, the GPIB interface is selected.
• The interface selection is stored in non-volatile memory and does not
change when power has been off or after a remote interface reset.
• If you select the GPIB interface, you must select a unique address for
the instrument. The GPIB address is displayed on the front panel
when you turn on the function generator.
• If you select the RS-232 interface, you must also set the baud rate,
parity, and handshake mode for the function generator. The interface
selection is displayed on the front panel when you turn on the
function generator.
• Front-Panel Operation: Press
softkey from the "I/O" menu.
See also "To Configure the Remote Interface," on page 44.
