Getting Started
Your power supply has a USB 2.0 high-speed device port to control the power
supply using the USBTMC protocol. The USBTMC protocol allows USB devices
to communicate using IEEE-488.2 style messages.
You can also remotely communicate between your power supply and PC over
GPIB using the TEK-USB-488 Adapter.
Using the USB
Start by connecting an appropriate USB cable between the USB 2.0 high-speed
device port on the rear panel of your power supply and a PC.
In order for the PC to recognize the power supply, a USBTMC driver must be
installed on the PC. A USBTMC driver can be installed on your PC by installing a
virtual instrument communications API like TekVISA or NIVISA. These VISAs
are available for download from the Tektronix or National Instruments Web sites.
Once the USBTMC driver is loaded, your PC will establish communication with
the power supply upon USB cable connection.
For further remote control and/or programming use, other software applications
may be needed in addition to a VISA and the USBTMC driver.
Using the GPIB
Start by connecting an appropriate USB cable between the USB 2.0 high-speed
device port on the rear panel of your power supply and the TEK-USB-488
Adapter host port. Then connect a GPIB cable from the TEK-USB-488 Adapter
to your PC.
Supply power to the adapter in one of the following ways:
Use an optional 5 V DC power adapter connected to the 5 V DC power
input on the adapter.
Use an appropriate USB cable connected to a powered USB host port on your
PC and the device port on the TEK-USB-488 Adapter.
GPIB Requirements
Before setting up the power supply for remote communication using the electronic
(physical) GPIB interface, you should familiarize yourself with the following
recommendations:
