IEEE-488 Operation
Introduction
This section contains basic information on using the Model 7002-HD over the
IEEE-488 bus.
Remote operations
IEEE-488 bus connections
The Model 7002-HD can be connected to the IEEE-488 bus through a cable
equipped with standard IEEE-488 connectors, an example is shown in
The connector can be stacked to allow a number of parallel connections to one
instrument. Two screws are located on each connector to ensure that connections
remain secure.
A typical connecting scheme for a multi-unit test system is shown in
Although any number of connectors could theoretically be stacked on one instru-
ment, it is recommended that you stack no more than three connectors on any one
unit to avoid possible mechanical damage. In order to minimize interference caused
by electromagnetic radiation, it is recommended that only shielded IEEE-488 cables
be used. The Model 7007 shielded IEEE-488 cables are available from Keithley.
