IEEE-488 Port Setup Procedure
Complete the following procedure to set up the Calibrator for remote operations
using the IEEE-488 remote control port. The purpose is to select GPIB as the
interface and to select the GPIB address for the interface.
To set up the IEEE-488 port
1.
Turn the Calibrator power on and wait until the initialization procedure
completes. You may operate the Calibrator during warm-up, but specifications
are not guaranteed until warm-up is complete.

Figure 4-4. Testing the IEEE-488 Port
It is beyond the scope of this manual to describe how to test the 525A IEEE-488
interface in general because Windows is not provided by default with an
application to exercise a device attached to an IEEE-488 interface card. However
if MET/CAL has been purchased, the following steps may be performed to verify
that the 525A IEEE-488 interface is functioning properly:
