Master-Slave Bus
A Master/Slave bus port is provided on the rear of the unit. This port is
comprised of two RJ45 sockets and enables multiple identical units to be
connected via a digital bus (RS485) to create a master-slave system.
Connections are made using standard CAT5 network cables. These can
theoretically have a length of up to 1200 m, but it is recommended to keep
these connections as short as possible.
3.8.7
GPIB Interface Option
An optional GPIB connector is available as option –GPIB and replaces the
modular interface slot of standard power source models. The unit with
the GPIB option then offers a three-way interface using GPIB, USB and
analog. The connection to a PC or other GPIB port is done with standard
GPIB cables, which can have straight or 90° angle connectors.
Note: When using cable with 90° connectors, the USB port will be
inaccessible.
Note: The modular digital optional interface are not supported on
models configured with the –GPIB interface option.

Replaces the standard slot for pluggable interface modules by a rigidly
installed GPIB port. This option can be retrofitted upon request. The unit
will keep the USB and analog interfaces. Via the GPIB port only SCPI
commands are supported.
6RL SLAVE
Additional slave units
Slave units are intended to extend the power of specific standard
models. They do not feature an HMI and are intended to only run being
controlled by the master.
The slave units can be ordered by model number and retrofitted on
location. A patch cable for master-slave bus connection of the additional
slave is included.
