Connecting Peripherals

To connect to a controller

You can control the 1670G-series logic analyzer with another

instrument, such as a computer running a program with embedded

analyzer commands. The steps below outline the general procedure for

connecting to a controller using GPIB or RS-232-C.

1 Turn off both instruments, and connect the cable.

If you are using RS-232-C, the cable must be a null-modem cable. If you

do not have a null-modem cable, you can purchase an adapter at any

electronics supply store.

2 Turn on the logic analyzer and then the controller.

3 In the System External I/O menu, select the field under

Connected To: in the Controller box and set it appropriately.

4 Select the appropriate Settings field and configure the values in

the pop-up menu to be compatible with the controller.
