Chapter 7 Remote Interface Operation
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 the WaveWorks Jr., it is only necessary to read the
section on how to set the GPIB address or RS-232 parameters on the 2711A 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 programming examples. More details are
given in chapter 8 for the advanced users of the instrument.
Introduction
1. Press the SETUP button.
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 ad-
dress is set to 16 when the generator is shipped from the factory.
To set the GPIB address
RS232=19200,N81
GPIB Addr = 16
2. Select GPIB by turning the knob.
3. Move the cursor to the numerical field by pressing the right arrow key.
4. Set the GPIB address by turning the knob.
GPIB Addr = 16
