Rear panel operation

The Series 2200 instrument supports two remote interfaces:
GPIB (general purpose interface bus)
USB
The Series 2200 can only be controlled from one remote interface at a time. The unit will remote to
the first interface on which it receives a message. It will ignore the other interface until the unit is
taken back to local operation.
Connect to an external computer with IEEE-488
This topic contains information about GPIB standards, bus connections, and primary address
selection.
GPIB standards
The GPIB is the IEEE-488 instrumentation data bus with hardware and programming standards
originally adopted by the IEEE (Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers) in 1975. The
instrument is IEEE Std 488.1 compliant and supports IEEE Std 488.2 common commands and status
model topology.
Connect the GPIB cable
To connect a Series 2200 to the GPIB bus, use a cable equipped with standard IEEE-488
connectors, as shown below.
