Figure 3–81: Typical GPIB Network Configuration
Obtain the Proper Interconnect Cabling. To connect the oscilloscope to a GPIB
network, obtain at least one GPIB cable. Connecting two GPIB devices requires
an IEEE Std 488.1-1987 GPIB cable (available from Tektronix, part number
012-0991-00).
The standard GPIB cable connects to a 24-pin GPIB connector located on the
rear panel of the oscilloscope. The connector has a D-type shell and conforms to
IEEE Std 488.1-1987. You can stack GPIB connectors on top of each other. (See
Figure 3–82.)
