only, listen-only, extended talk or listen, parallel poll, remote-local control, or trigger
nor can it act as a controller. The IEEE-488 commands GET, GTL, LLO, and REN are
accepted without error but ignored.
7.2.2.2
Connection
The IEEE-488 port is located on the back of the 1529. Use a standard IEEE-488 cable
to connect to your GPIB controller. A shielded cable should be used to prevent EM
emission.
7.2.2.3
Device Setup
The Model 1529 system must be set up to respond to the controller address. Refer to
Section 6.5.1.2, GPIB (Optional) on page 61, for setting address and other parameters
for the IEEE-488 port.
