EPC7-4 : Configure the Command Module to Work with the EPC7
When you are using a Command Module in your system to interpret SCPI
commands for the register-based instruments, you must configure your
Command Module as a non-slot 0 device. The steps involved are as follows:
• Set the Command Module’s Logical Address
• Set the Command Module’s Servant Area
• Set the Command Module’s Primary GPIB Address
• Disable the Command Module’s slot 0 and System Controller
Capability
In a VXIbus system with an EPC7 computer and Agilent E1406A
Command Module, it is recommended that the EPC7 functions as the
resource manger and slot 0 device, and that the E1406A Command Module
be a servant of the EPC7. The resource manager and slot 0 functions and
commander/servant hierarchy concepts are covered in Appendix A, "Terms
and Definitions."
If you need to assign selected instruments to report to the Command
Module in the Commader/Servant Hierarchy, see the "Agilent RADI-EPC7
Embedded Computer" section in Procedure 5, "Apply Power."
