Preparation for Use

Model 2090 Multi-Device Controller

GPIB INTERCONNECTIONS

The Model 2090 is compatible with the General Purpose

Interface Bus as described in the IEEE 488.1/488.2

standard. A "D" connector has been provided on the 2090

rear panel for connection to a GPIB bus.

NOTE: When making this connection, do not stack more

than three cables on any one connector. This eliminates

undue mechanical stress on the connector and rear panel.

Also, be sure to screw the two-connector lock-screws finger

tight to avoid a loose connection during operation.

NOTE: The controller's talker/listener bus address can be

set through the front panel. Instructions on how to perform

this operation may be found in “Initialization” under the

subsection “Configuring For Use”.
