About This Chapter
Except where noted, all references to the HP E1413 apply to the
HP E1313. This chapter will explain hardware configuration before
installation in a VXIbus mainframe. By attending to each of these
configuration items, your HP Scanning A/D Converter module will not need
to be removed from its mainframe later. Chapter contents include:

Setting the VXIbus Interrupt Level: The HP Scanning A/D Converters use
a default VXIbus interrupt level of 1. The default setting is made at power-on
and after a
*RST
command. You can change the interrupt level by executing
the
DIAGnostic:INTerrupt[:LINe]
command in your application program.
