11.4.1 IEEE-488 Interface Connector
Connection to the IEEE-488 Interface connector on the rear of the Model 340 Temperature Controller is made
using cables specified in the IEEE-488-1978 standard document. Briefly, the cable has 24 conductors with an
outer shield. The connectors at each end are 24-way Amphenol 57 Series (or equivalent) with piggyback
receptacles to allow daisy-chaining in multiple device systems. The connectors are secured in the receptacles
by a pair of captive locking screws with metric threads.
The total length of cable allowed in a system is 2 meters for each device on the bus, or 20 meters maximum.
This instrument can drive a bus with up to 10 devices. Figure 11-7 shows the IEEE-488 Interface connector
pin location and signal names as views from the rear panel of the controller.
