1. As a stand-alone unit (the only unit at the address). It has a primary address in the range of 0 to 30. For example:
5
or
7.
2. As the direct unit in a serial link. It is the only unit connected directly to the GPIB bus. The primary address is unique and
can be from 0 to 30. It is entered as an integer followed by a decimal separator. The secondary address always is 0, which
may be added after the primary address. If the secondary address is omitted, it is assumed to be 0. For example:
5.0
or
7
.
3. As a linked unit in serial link. It gets its primary address from the direct unit.
It has a unique secondary address that can
be from l to 15. It is entered as
an
integer preceded by a decimal separator. For example:
.l
or
.12
When you enter a secondary address, leading zeros between the decimal separator and the first digit are ignored. For
example, .1, .01, and .001 are accepted as secondary address 1 and displayed as
0.01
. Zeros following a digit are not
ignored. Thus, .10 and .010 are both accepted as secondary address 10 and displayed as
0. 10
.
