  • Page 78: Changing The Gpib Primary Address

    Each instrument serviced by the GPIB has its own Primary Address code, which enables the computer to obtain readings from the instrument. The factory default of the setting on the DSP6001 is 09. Some PC interfaces can access from one to fifteen 4-bit primary addresses. Other interfaces can access as many as thirty-one 5-bit primary addresses.
