The GPIB connector on the rear panel (Figure 2-5) connects the SLH-series High

provisions:
• The maximum number of devices including the controller is no more than 15.
• The maximum length of all cables is no more than 2 meters times the number of
devices connected together, up to 20 meters maximum.
Ensure that the lock screws are firmly hand-tightened; use a screwdriver only for the
removal of screws. The GPIB address of the Load is factory set to 05.

STATE 4+STATE 5 keys simultaneously. Press UP or DOWN on the
BANK keys (white buttons to right) to select the address number (0-31).
