Inspection and Installation

CAN Troubleshooting

If you meet some problems when communicating with PC by CAN interface,

please check the following items:

• PC and the instrument must have the same baud rate.

• Ensure you have used the correct communication cable (CAN_H, CAN_L,

GND). Please pay attention that some cable may not have a correct internal

wiring even it is with an appropriate plug.

2.5.4 GPIB Interface (Optional)

The GPIB (IEEE-488) interface is assembled in the IT-E166 communication

board. Use an IEEE488 bus to connect GPIB interfaces of the instrument and

PC. Please ensure that the screws have been screwed down in order to have a

full connection.

GPIB Configuration

Each device on the GPIB (IEEE-488) interface must have a unique whole num-

ber address between 1 and 30. Your computer’s GPIB interface card address

must not conflict with any instrument on the interface bus. This setting is nonvo-

latile; it will not be changed by *RST.

When you purchase the interface accessory and successfully insert it into the

corresponding position on the rear panel of the instrument, the menu item for

changing the GPIB address appears in the System menu. The specific steps

are as follows:

1. Ensure that the instrument's power switch is off, that is, the instrument is in

Power Off state.

2. Insert the separately purchased GPIB interface card into the card slot on the

rear panel of the instrument.

3. Connect the instrument with the computer via the IEEE488 bus. After the

connection is successful, turn on the power switch of the instrument.

4. Press the composite keys [Shift]+[P-set] (System) on the front panel to en-

ter the system menu.

5. Rotate the knob or press the Up/Down key to select I/O and press [Enter].

6. Press the Left/Right key to select GPIB and press [Enter].

7. Press the numeric keys to set the GPIB address and press [Enter].

2.5.5 RS–232 Interface (Optional)

The RS-232 interface shares the same communication card (IT-E167) with the

analog function.
