Figure 5-10, GPIB Setup 1 Menu
This menu, shown in figure 5-10, has two controls affecting the GPIB computer
interface, as follows:-
Address
Each instrument used on the GPIB interface must have a unique address, in the range
0 to 31, and this control is used to set this address. The default setting is 12.
Terminator
This control selects the method by which the instrument signals to the controlling
computer the completion of transmission of a response to a command. Three choices
are available:-
CR,LF
A carriage return followed by a line feed are transmitted at the end of a response
string, and in addition the GPIB interface line EOI (end of instruction) is asserted
with the line feed character.
EOI
The GPIB interface line EOI (end of instruction) is asserted at the end of a
response string. This gives the fastest possible operation since other termination
characters are not needed.
CR
A carriage return is transmitted at the end of a response string and in addition the
GPIB interface line EOI (end of instruction) is asserted.
