Model 7002-HD User's Manual
IEEE-488 operation summary
The following paragraphs discuss fundamental information concerning operation
over the IEEE-488 bus. More information on operating the instrument from over
the bus is contained in Section 5 of this manual.
Bus connections
Before using the instrument over the bus, you must connect the IEEE-488
connector on the rear panel of the instrument to the IEEE-488 connector of
your controller. Use a Keithley Model 7007 or similar IEEE-488 cable for this
connection.
Primary address
The primary address of the Model 7002-HD must agree with the primary address
you intend to specify in the controller's programming language. The factory setting
for the primary address is 7, so if you intend to use that address, you need not
change it. However, the primary address can be set to any value between 0 and
30 by using the GPIB setup menu (ADDRESS selection) available with the MENU
key.
Abbreviated SCPI command summary
Most instrument operations are controlled using SCPI commands.
provides an abbreviated list of the SCPI commands necessary to perform some
basic operations.
Not shown in the table are companion query commands for the :ARM and :TRIGger
Subsystem commands (:COUNt?, :DELay?, :SOURce?, and :TIMer?). For exam-
ple, the :TRIGger:SOURce? query command is used to request the currently
selected control source. After the query command is sent and the Model 7002-HD is
addressed to talk, a message identifying the selected control source will be sent to
the computer.
