Section 1: Getting Started Series 2600A System SourceMeter® Instruments Reference Manual
1 CHANNEL A and CHANNEL B (Channel B on 2602A/2612A only)
Input/output connections for source, sense, and guard.
2 DIGITAL I/O
Female DB-25 connector. Fourteen pins for digital input or output, one pin for output enable (2601A/
2602A) or safety interlock (2611A/2612A); +5V and GND pins are also provided.
Use a cable equipped with a male DB-25 connector (Keithley Instruments part number CA-126-1CA).
3 IEEE-488
Connector for IEEE-488 (GPIB) operation. Use a shielded cable, such as the Model 7007-1 or Model
7007-2.
4 Cooling exhaust vent
Exhaust vent for the internal cooling fan. Keep the vent free of obstructions to prevent overheating.
5 Chassis ground
Ground screw for connections to chassis ground.
6 Low noise chassis ground
Ground jack for connecting Output HI or LO to chassis.
7 RS-232
Female DB-9 connector. For RS-232 operation, use a straight-through (not null modem) DB-9 shielded
cable (Keithley Instruments Model 7009-5) for connection to the PC.
8 TSP-Link
Expansion interface that allows a Series 2600A and other TSP-enabled instruments to
trigger and communicate with each other. Use a category 5e or higher LAN crossover cable (Keithley
Instruments part number CA-180-3A).
9 Power module
Contains the AC line receptacle and power line fuse. The instrument can operate on line voltages of 100V
to 240V AC at line frequencies of 50Hz or 60Hz.
10. LAN
Use this RJ-45 connector to connect the instrument to the local area network. The RJ-45 connector
connects a network card, a network switch, a router or a hub. When connecting directly to a PC, a
crossover cable (included) must be used. When connecting to a network switch, router, or hub, a normal
CAT-5 cable (not provided) should be used unless your equipment has Auto-MDIX capabilities. If it does
have Auto-MDIX, the crossover cables may be used.
