Step 2: Verify the Voltage Requirement
The GPIB-232CT is shipped from the factory with either a 115V or 230V
wall-mount supply. Verify that the voltage on the supply matches the
voltage that is supplied in your area.
Caution:
Operating the unit at any voltage other than the one specified
could damage the unit.
Step 3: Configure the Operating Parameters
The GPIB-232CT is shipped from the factory configured to operate in S
mode. To configure the GPIB-232CT to operate in G mode, follow these
steps:
1. Disconnect power to the unit and disconnect any cables that may be
connected to the unit.
2. Unscrew the two screws on the opposite sides of the rear panel.
3. Grab the rear panel bezel and pull it straight away from the rest of the
unit. The card should slide out the back of the enclosure.
4. Locate the configuration DIP switch (U22) on the printed wire board.
5. Set the switches for the desired mode of operation. Refer to the
following section,
Set Configuration Switches
.
Caution:
Most of the circuitry in the GPIB-232CT uses advanced
CMOS technology and can be damaged by static
electricity. Avoid touching any of the components and
take any necessary CMOS handling precautions.
6. Close the unit and re-insert the screws removed in Step 2.
