Step-2 : Set Instrument Logical Addresses
All instruments are shipped with a factory-set logical address. In some
cases you can use the factory-set logical address. The following table lists
selected Agilent instruments and their factory-set logical addresses:
Notice that some cards have the same logical address. When installing
cards into a mainframe, however, each card must have a unique logical
address. Thus, if you have cards with the same factory-set logical address,
you must change the logical address on some of the cards.
Use the following steps to set an instrument’s logical address:
1. Locate the logical address switch on the card. Figure 4-1 shows the
switch locations for most B- and C-Size modules.
2. Set the card’s logical address using the following rules:
– First, try to use the factory-set logical address. If you have
modules with the same factory-set logical address, change the
address of the modules until all modules have different logical
addresses.
– If you have multiple mainframes connected via MXIbus, make
sure the logical addresses of the modules in a mainframe are
within the logical address window for that mainframe. See
"MXIbus-4 : Set the VXI-MXI Module’s Logical Address" in
procedure 3.
