LAN, USB, and GPIB Interfaces 4
Agilent Infiniium 90000 Series Oscilloscopes Programmer's Reference 81
GPIB Interface Connector
The 90000A Series and 90000 X- Series oscilloscopes are equipped with a
GPIB interface connector on the rear panel (the 90000Q- Series requires
the N4865A GPIB-to-LAN adapter). This allows direct connection to a
GPIB equipped computer. You can connect an external GPIB compatible
device to the oscilloscope by installing a GPIB cable between the two
units. Finger tighten the captive screws on both ends of the GPIB cable to
avoid accidentally disconnecting the cable during operation.
A maximum of fifteen GPIB compatible instruments (including a computer)
can be interconnected in a system by stacking connectors. This allows the
oscilloscopes to be connected in virtually any configuration, as long as
there is a path from the computer to every device operating on the bus.
CAUTION
Avoid stacking more than three or four cables on any one connector. Multiple
connectors produce leverage that can damage a connector mounting.
