IEEE-488 Communication DIP Switch Settings

The 5 DIP switches located on the rear panel of the Model 185/186 are

used to set the primary IEEE-488 bus address of the unit.

5.2.3.1 IEEE-488 primary bus address

The Model 185/186 primary bus address is controlled by switches 1

through 5 of the communication DIP switch on the rear panel. Valid

primary addresses are between 0 and 30. The Model 185/186 does not use

secondary addressing. Note that many IEEE-488 controller cards in

external computers will use address 0 (or 21). The bus address for each

Model 185/186 should be unique with respect to other Model 185/186 units

or any other devices on the bus. The switch settings for the various

addresses are (on = 1 or the up position):
