Use a personal computer or workstation equipped with the GPIB interface.
You need to install software to control this instrument via the GPIB into the
external controller (for example, HTBasic or Keysight VEE).
purpose)
devices
You can connect up to 15 devices in a single GPIB system.
The length of cables to make connections between devices must be 4 m or
less. The total length of connecting cables in a single GPIB system must be
2 m × the number of connected devices (including the controller) or less.
You cannot construct a system in which the total cable length exceeds 20
m.
The number of connectors connected to an individual device must be four
or less. If you connect five or more connectors, excessive force will be
applied to the connector part, which may result in failure.
You can choose the device connection topology from star, linear, and
combined. Loop connection is not supported.
