Switch/Jumper Settings Figure 2-8 shows the Agilent E6171B logical address switch with the switch
shown in the factory setting. The logical address for both a one mainframe
system and a two mainframe system is the factory default setting of “17”.
Refer to “VXI Module Locations And Logical Addresses” on page 32. The
Interrupt Priority is always set to 1.
Cabling Figure 2-8 shows the Agilent E6171 Measurement Control module cabling.
The rows are the three-wide sets of pins that the 3x1 cables plug onto. J1 is
made up of individual cables which connect to the system instrumentation.
J2 is the interconnection column (ABus) to the 32-Pin Matrix Modules. See
Chapter 4 on page 63 for the pinouts of cables which terminate on the
Measurement Control module.
Cable Pinouts The cables which connect the Measurement Control Module connector J1 to
the VXI instrumentation are shown in Chapter 4 on page 63. There are two
male BNC coax to 3x1 connectors, of which the Agilent E3750-61621
supports isolated instruments as shown in Chapter 4 on page 63. The red tag
and red shrink tubing are used to identify the isolated instruments cable.
