Rack Mount Kit (Y5737)
The rack mount kit provides all the hardware necessary to mount the 5790A on slides in a
24-inch (61 cm) equipment rack. An instruction sheet is packed with the rack mount kit.

Shielded IEEE-488 Interface Cables (Y8021, Y8022, and Y8023)
Shielded IEEE-488 cables are available in three lengths (see Table 9-1). The cables attach
the 5790A to any other IEEE-488 device. Each cable has double 24-pin connectors at
both ends to allow stacking. Metric threaded mounting screws are provided with each
connector. Figure 5-2 in Section 5 shows the pinout for the IEEE-488 connector.

RS-232-C Null-Modem Cables (Y1702 and Y1703)
The Y1702 (6.56 ft, 2m) and Y1703 (32.8 ft, 10m) RS-232-C Null-Modem Cables
connect the 5790A to a printer, video-display terminal, computer, or other serial device
configured as DTE (Data Terminal Equipment). These cables are wired with the correct
signal line inversions and two female 25-pin subminiature D connectors as necessary to
connect two DTE units together. Figure 7-1 in Section 7 shows the pinout for the rear-
panel serial interface connector.
Section 7 contains instructions for transferring serial data from the 5790A. Sections 5 and
6 contain instructions for using the RS-232 port as the remote control interface.
