Matrix Modules Description
The E1465A, E1466A, and E1467A Relay Matrix Switch modules are
VXIbus C-Size register-based modules that can operate with a command
module, such as an E1406A. Four 4x16 submatrixes are implemented on
the PC board with 256 latching relays. Terminal modules convert the sub-
matrixes into 4x64 (E1466A), 8x32 (E1467A), or 16x16 (E1465A) matrixes.
Agilent plug-in modules installed in an mainframe or used with a command
module are treated as independent
instruments
, each having a unique
secondary GPIB address. Each instrument is assigned a dedicated error
queue, input and output buffers, status registers, and if applicable,
dedicated mainframe/command module memory space for readings or data.
An instrument may be composed of a single plug-in module or multiple
plug-in modules.
NOTE
The matrix model number is determined by the terminal module connected
to the PC board. If no terminal module is connected, the relay matrix switch
module defaults to an E1466A. To program the E1465A and E1467A, make
certain the terminal module is connected.
The
E1465A Relay Matrix
module (Figure 1-1) provides a 16x16 two-wire
crosspoint matrix. This 16x16 matrix is created by connecting the terminal
module. The terminal module connects the columns of the submatrixes of
A, B, C, and D.
The
E1466A Relay Matrix
module (Figure 1-2) provides a 4x64 two-wire
crosspoint matrix. This 4x64 matrix is created by connecting the terminal
module. The terminal module connects the rows of submatrixes A, B, C,
and D.
The
E1467A Relay Matrix
module (Figure 1-3) provides an 8x32 two-wire
crosspoint matrix. This 8x32 matrix is created by connecting the terminal
module. The terminal module connects the rows of submatrixes A and C,
and rows of submatrixes B and D. The columns of submatrixes A and B,
and columns of submatrixes C and D are also connected.
