This section introduces the communications setup menu; Section 5 provides the setup
instructions and operation information. Press SETUP>MORE>COMM to arrive at the
communications menu.
Each type of Teledyne API's calibrator is configured with a default ID code. The
default ID code for all T700 calibrators is typically 700 (or 0). The ID number is only
important if more than one calibrator is connected to the same communications channel
such as when several calibrators are on the same Ethernet LAN (See Section 5.4); in an
RS-232 multi-drop chain (See Section3.3.1.7) or operating over a RS-485 network (see
Section 5.3). If two calibrators of the same model type are used on one channel, the ID
codes of one or both of the instruments need to be changed.
To edit the instrument's ID code, press:
The ID number is only important if more than one calibrator is connected to the same
communications channel (e.g., a multi-drop setup). Different models of Teledyne API's
calibrators have different default ID numbers, but if two calibrators of the same model
type are used on one channel (for example, two T700's), the ID of one instrument needs
to be changed.
