The IEEE-488 bus interface H088
The test instruments of the HAMEG Series HM8100 have all been designed to permit
their use in automated testing environments. In order to connect them to an IEEE488
bus, the interface HO88 (option) is required. Series HM8100 instruments equipped
with the IEEE488 bus interface comply with the stipulations of the IEC-625-1 and
IEEE-488 standards. If the HO88 interface is ordered together with the a HM 81 ..
instrument, it is installed within it at the factory. The HO 88 interface is also available
as a separate option for retrofitting purposes at a later time.
Software service
For operation of the Series 8100 instruments, HAMEG will be issuing software at
irregular intervals. This software will be supplied free of charge-to the owners of these
instruments. In addition, updates of the firmware contained in the instruments will be
provided in the form of new EPROMs at cost price. In order to- benefit from this
software service, it is sufficient to register by sending in your name and address and
the serial number of-your HAMEG instrument.
Installation
An HM 81 .. instrument can be easily and unproblematically retrofitted by the user
with the H088 Interface. The first step is to remove the instrument enclosure. To do
