Download E1465A/E1466A/E1467A Relay Matrix Switch Modules

Creating Larger
Matrixes with
Multiple Mainframes
Figure 2-14 shows one way to connect C-Size mainframes together using
GPIB. The matrix switch modules in each mainframe are then configured as
switchboxes. The switchbox card numbers are 1, 2, 3, etc. in each
mainframe and each mainframe has a different address.
For example, to address the second module in the second mainframe, use
OUTPUT 70815; "CLOSe (@20001)", where the interface select code is 7,
the command module primary address is 08, and and the matrix module's
secondary address is 15. This address selects card 2, row 00, column 01.
