Chapter 7 Remote Interface Operation
Introduction
Introduction
This section describes how to remotely control all instrument functions and how to download and
upload waveform data using either the RS-232C or GPIB interface. If you are using WaveWorks Pro +,
it is only necessary to read the section on how to set the GPIB address or RS-232 parameters on the
2411B if you have already installed a GPIB card and the required software on your computer. Included
are an overview of remote control, a complete tabulation and explanation of control commands, and pro-
gramming examples. More details are given in chapter 8 for the advanced users of the instrument.
To set the GPIB address (option)
Each device on the GPIB (IEEE-488) interface must have a unique address. You can set the waveform
generator’s address to any value between 0 and 30.
The address is set to 16 when the generator is
shipped from the factory.
