IEC bus (IEEE 488) interface for remote control of the R&S NRX. Used to con-
nect a controller to remote control the R&S NRX. Use a shielded cable for the
connection.

Characteristics of the IEC bus (IEEE 488) interface:

●

8-bit

 

parallel data transfer

●

Bidirectional data transfer

●

Three-wire handshake

●

High data transfer rate

●

Maximum length of connecting cables 15

 

m (single connection 2

 

m)

5.2.7

 

Sensor Connectors C and D

See (7) 

Figure 5-2

.

Requires 3rd and 4th R&S NRP sensor connector (R&S NRX-B4).
