2. Select a slot in the VXI mainframe for the E1439 module.
3. Using a small screwdriver or similar tool, set the logical address configura-

As opposed to the older A or B models.
The Agilent E1439D module's local bus receives ECL-level data from the
module immediately to its left and outputs ECL-level data to the module
immediately to its right. Every module using the local bus is keyed to prevent
two modules from fitting next to each other unless they are compatible. If you
will be using the local bus, select adjacent slots immediately to the left of the
data-receiving module. If the VXI bus is used, maximum data rates will be
reduced but the module can be placed in any available slot.

in the system must have a unique logical address. The factory default setting
is 1100 0000 (192).
