6. This will generate an error message.
7. Next close the WIN16 Interactive Control program by typing ‘q’ at the gpib0
prompt.
8. Now start the LGUI program again.
Note
: If you are using the LSGUI program, be sure to send or fax in the
software registration form located in the LSGUI user manual. This will ensure
you will receive free software upgrades.
13.2 Interface problems
Many problems can be traced to interface problems. The most common
types of problems and possible resolutions are listed in this section.
13.2.1 Wrong IEEE address
When the LSGUI is first launched, it will attempt to determine the
presence of an L-Series power source at IEEE address 1. This is the default
address used for the L-Series when shipped from the factory. This may not
be the address to which the unit you are using is set. Refer to the user
documentation for the L-Series to change the IEEE address from the front
panel. It is more likely however that you want to use the present value to
which the L-Series unit is set as their may be other instruments on the same
IEEE bus. The LSGUI can use any IEEE address from 0 through 30. The
IEEE address can be selected from the Configuration, IEEE Interface
