Cabling
The HP-MSIB cables are connected in a serial (daisy-chain) manner, coupling the input of one
element to the output of next until the loop is completed.
Remote Operation
The use of long HP-MSIB cables to separate the mainframe and display, or other products
supporting HP-MSIB, allows remote operation. Since the signals on the HP-MSIB are digital,
only measurement speed is slightly degraded.
Addressing
The HP 70001A Mainframe does not have an HP-MSIB address. The mainframe acts as an
HP-MSIB arbitrator, allocating time on the HP-MSIB bus to any module or device designed to
work with an HP 70000 Series system that requests it.
Adjustments
The HP 70001A Mainframe has only internal service-related adjustments. These adjustments
should only be attempted by quali ed technical personnel.
