SETUP
Figure 1 shows the system connection. All that is
required is to:
1. Connect the 24-pin HP-IB connector of the
built-in HP-I B interface of the 9826A to the prin­
ter and the 8340A.
Refer to 0/S Manuals for more detail on inter­
connects.
Do not attempt to mate black metric
threaded screws on one connector with
silver English threaded nuts on another
connector, or vice versa, as damage may
result. (A metric conversion kit which
will convert one cable and one or two
instruments to metric hardware is avail­
able by ordering
0138.)
2. Following the instructions in the BASIC Operat­
ing Manual for the HP 9826A, load the BASIC
language system, if required. (Option 711)
3. The H P-1 B select code is assumed to be preset
to 7. This programming note assumes the H P-1 B
address of the 2673A Graphics Printer is 01.
4. All programs within this guide expect the 8340A
HP-IB address to be decimal 19. The 8340A HP-
B address is factory preset to decimal 19.
