Appendix 12. Technical Reference for the
Handler Interface Migration
4284A has two Handler Interface options: Option 4284A-201 and Option 4284A-
202. The difference between this two options are the PIN assignments. E4980A
has only one Handler Interface option, Option E4980A-201. Option E4980A-201
is directly compatible with Option 4284A-201, but it needs to be modified to
work with the Option 4284A-202.

The PIN assignment of Option 4284A-202 is quite different from that of the
Option E4980A-201, Figure 21 shows the difference and the conversion refer-
ence from Option 4284A-202 to Option E4980A-201.
