Setting the Test Set Address Switch
The test set is shipped with the GPIB (HP-IB) address set to 12, which sets the parallel
address to 0 as in Figure 9. Refer to “Operation” on page 18 for the definition of the parallel
address.
To set the GPIB address, set all five switches so that the sum of the switches in the On or
“1” position equal the desired address. In the example below, the two switches in the “On”
position are 8 and 4, therefore the GPIB address is 12.
To set the parallel address, use only the number 1 switch. Therefore the possibilities for
parallel port addressing are an address of 0 or 1.
When GPIB is used, the parallel address is ignored.
