devices. A GPIB system can be connected in any configuration (star, linear, or both) as long
as the following conditions are met:
•
The maximum number of devices including the controller is equal or less than 15.
•
The maximum length of the GPIB cable is no more than 2 meters.
•
The total lead length of all devices connected together totals less than 20 meters.
•
Please make sure the lock screws are firmly hand-tightened, use a screwdriver only
for the removal of screws.
Each device on the GPIB (IEEE-488) interface must have a unique address. You can set the
address of the CFS series to any value between 0 and 30. The address can only be set from
the front panel. The address is stored in non- volatile memory and does not change when
the power has been off or after a remote reset.
Note:
The address is set to 8 when the power source is shipped from the factory.
The GPIB connector pin-out is defined by the IEEE-488 standard and shown for reference
only in Table 5-11 below.

Control Commands
The USB, RS-232 and LAN interfaces use the same command set as the LAN and GPIB
interface for setting of test parameters. However there are some functions of the GPIB
488.2 interface that are not available through USB/RS-232/LAN. The IEEE-488 interface
option for the CFS series conforms to the requirements of the IEEE-488.2 standard.
