RS-232 Interface Reference

DB-25 Serial Connection
If your computer or terminal has a 25-pin serial port with
a male connector, use the null-modem cable and 25-pin adapter included with the
Agilent 34398A Cable Kit. The cable and adapter pin diagram are shown below.
RS-232 Troubleshooting
Here are a few things to check if you are having problems communicating over the
RS-232 interface. If you need additional help, refer to the documentation that came
with your computer.
• Verify that the power supply and your computer are configured for the same baud
rate, parity, and number of data bits. Make sure that your computer is set up for 1
start bit and 2 stop bits (these values are fixed on the power supply).
• Make sure to execute the
SYSTem:REMote
command to place the power supply
in the remote mode.
• Verify that you have connected the correct interface cable and adapters. Even if
the cable has the proper connectors for your system, the internal wiring may be
incorrect. The
Agilent 34398A Cable Kit
can be used to connect the power supply
to most computers or terminals.
• Verify that you have connected the interface cable to the correct serial port on your
computer (COM1, COM2, etc.).
