How to Use this Manual
This manual shows how to operate, configure, and program the E1472A
50 Ohm RF Multiplexer, E1473A 50 Ohm RF Multiplexer Expander, E1474A
75 Ohm RF Multiplexer, and E1475A 75 Ohm RF Multiplexer Expander
modules. The RF Multiplexer is a VXIbus C-Size register-based slave
device, and can operate in a C-size VXIbus mainframe using a command
module such as the E1406. For other manufacturers’ mainframes, refer to
the applicable manual supplied by the manufacturer.
NOTE
Except where noted, the term “RF Multiplexer” refers to the E1472A
50 Ohm RF Multiplexer and E1474A 75 Ohm RF Multiplexer Modules.
The term “Expander” refers to the E1473A 50 Ohm RF Multiplexer
Expander, and E1475A 75 Ohm RF Multiplexer Expander Modules.
Most information in this manual applies to RF Multiplexer operations in a
command module. Standard Commands for Programmable Instruments
(SCPI) is the programming language. For non-SCPI programming, see
Appendix B for register-based programming.
