Configuring the Agilent E8462A Multiplexer
23
Connecting the
Analog Bus
The analog bus provides a common bus to all switch modules in multiple
switch cards. A multimeter or other instrument can be connected to the
analog bus. Use flat ribbon analog bus cables between Multiplexers and
other Agilent VXI modules that have an analog bus (both C-size modules or
B-size modules in a C-size adapter). Agilent E1411B 5-Digit Multimeter
users (and Agilent E1326B in a C-size adapter) must continue the analog bus
connection between Multiplexers and switch modules to the multimeter in
order to use the scanning and measurement capability the multimeter has to
offer. These cables provide the input to the multimeter from the
multiplexer/switch channels and fit under the Multiplexer’s optional
terminal cards. Refer to Figure 1-9.

Note
The Option 014 and 015 Terminal Cards distribute the analog bus from
P109 in the Terminal Card. An external measuring device can be connected
to the analog bus through the terminal card's terminals (pin 5 through pin
16 of connector P109). You can connect this Multiplexer to an E1412A
Multimeter, or other instruments not having an analog bus connector, via a
ribbon cable (not supplied). See Option 014 Fault Tolerant Terminal Block
on page 24 (and Option 015 on page 25) for more information.
Note
To use the Agilent E1326B 5½-Digit Multimeter in a C-size adapter:
Use the 19.5 inch analog bus cable part number E1326-61611 for analog
bus connection between the E1326B and the E8462A. The cable described
in Figure 1-9 will be too short for connection to the Agilent E1326B.
WARNING
The Multiplexer inputs must be limited to 30VACrms or 60VDC if
either end of the analog bus is accessible to users (such as on
the front panel of a multimeter).
