Use the Agilent Interactive IO to communicate with
the GPIB instruments
After the 82357B has been configured and connected to the

communication between your PC and the connected GPIB
instruments. To run the Interactive IO for an IEEE-488.2 compli-
ant instrument, perform the following:
1 Right click the instrument's icon in the Connection Expert
window.
2 Click Send Command to display the Interactive IO.
3 With the default command *IDN? displayed in the text
box, click Send & Read.
4 The instrument identification string should appear.
5 Repeat step 1 to step 3 for the next instrument.
Program the GPIB instruments (optional)
After communication has been established, you can program
your GPIB instruments using the VISA, VISA COM, or SICL
interfaces. See “Other References" on page 9 later in this
guide for the relevant documentation.
