    GPIB (IEEE-488) Communication For GPIB operation, the device address is set using the dip switches on the rear panel of the AA1000 Control Unit. It is set to address 1 at the factory. If another device on the GPIB bus is already using address 1, reset the switch to a vacant address.

    Model AA1000 3.3.2.1.1 Setting the GPIB (IEEE-488) Address The GPIB device address can be set to any number between 1 and 30. This selection is made by setting Switches 1 to 5 of the rear panel DIP switch to the binary equivalent of the number. Table 1 illustrates this switch selection.

    The connector type for this port is ST. This port can be used in conjunction with either an AR model IF7000 RS-232 to Fiber-Optic Interface or an AR model IF7001 USB to Fiber-Optic Interface. Note that these devices use SMA connectors so a fiber-optic cable is needed with ST connectors on one end and SMA connectors on the other.
  • Page 27: Ethernet Communication

    An application program on the computer/controller should issue only one character string (command or query) at a time. After each functional command is issued, the AA1000’s status should be checked to ensure that the command has been properly executed. The application program should allow sufficient time for the function to be completed before checking the status.
