Communication DIP Switch Settings
The 5 DIP switches located on the rear panel of the Model 186 are used to set the
primary IEEE-488 bus address of the unit.
IEEE-488 primary bus address
The Model 186 primary bus address is controlled by switches 1 through 5 of the
communication DIP switch on the rear panel. Valid primary addresses are between 0
and 30. The Model 186 does not use secondary addressing. Note that many IEEE-488
controller cards in external computers will use address 0. The bus address for each
Model 186
should be unique
with respect to other Model 186 units or any other
devices on the bus. The switch settings for the various addresses are (on = 1 or the up
position):
