4.2.11.1 GPIB/RS232 SETUP menu
Figure 4-21: GPIB/RS232 SETUP menu
The GPIB/RS232 SETUP menu may be used to change the interface parameter settings for both
the IEEE-488 interface and the RS232 serial interface. The following parameters can be set from
this menu:
GPIB ADDRESS Sets the IEEE-488 address used by the AC source. The
address value can be set from 0 through 31. Address 0 is often
reserved for the IEEE-488 controller. The factory setting is
address 1. Once changed, the IEEE-488 address is retained in
nonvolatile memory.
RS232 BAUDRATE This field can be used to set the RS232 baudrate to either 9600,
19200 or 38400 baud. The baudrate set on the AC source must
match the one programmed for the communications port of the
controller.
RS232 DATA This field is used to set the number of databits to either 7 or 8.
Factory setting is 8 bits. This value must match the number of
data bits set on the communications port of the controller.
RS232 PARITY This field is used to set the parity. Available options are Even
(E), Odd (O) or no parity (N). Factory setting is No parity. This
value must match the parity set on the communications port of
the controller.
RS232 STPBITS This field is used to set the number of stop bits used on the
serial port. Available options are 1 or 2 bits. Factory setting is 1
stop bit. This value must match the parity set on the
communications port of the controller.
The number of start bits is always fiXed to 1 bit.
