Hardware Interfaces

The following section describes the remote-control interfaces of the signal generator and the pin
assignment of the monitor connector. All other interfaces are described in chapter 1, sections
for Front Panel View" and

IEC/IEEE Bus Interface

The standard instrument is equipped with an IEC/IEEE bus connector. An IEEE 488 interface connector
is located on the rear panel. An external controller for remote control of the instrument can be
connected via the IEEE 488 interface connector using a shielded cable.
