8.5.2 Connecting the AC Source to the PC Using IEEE-488
Connect the AC source to the PC using an IEEE-488 interface cable. A National Instruments
GPIB controller card is required to use the PGUI32 program.
Select the IEEE-488 interface by sliding the interface selection DIP switch on the rear panel to
the IEEE-488 position.
Set the desired IEEE address using DIP switch position 4 through 0 on the rear panel.
8.5.3 Installing the PGUI32 Software
The PGUI32 software is distributed on a set of 3.5 inch high density floppy diskettes or on CD-
ROM. The PGUI32 must be installed from these diskettes or CD using the included setup
program as all required files are compressed. You cannot copy the contents of these diskettes
or CD to your PC hard drive and run the program. To install the PGUI32, proceed as follows:
1. Turn on the PC and boot up in Windows™
2. Insert the first disk (labeled Disk 1 of 3) in drive A or B or insert the CD in your CD-
ROM drive.
3. From the Windows Start Menu, select RUN.
4. At the “Open” prompt, type A:Setup or B:Setup depending on which disk drive you
used and click on the OK button. If you are installing from CD ROM, locate the
Win32/PGUI32 directory on the CDROM and run the setup program.
5. Follow the instructions provided by the setup program to complete the installation.
At some point, you will be asked to insert the second disk (Disk 2). Remove the first
disk and replace it with disk 2 and press OK to continue the installation. Continue
through the last disk.
6. When the installation has completed, remove the last disk from the floppy drive and
store the disks in a safe place.
Reboot the PC to activate the new settings. You are now ready to start using the PGUI32
software.
