Initializing the TSP-Link system
The TSP-Link
®
system must be initialized after configuration changes. You need to initialize the
system after you:
• Turn off power or reboot any instrument in the system
• Change node numbers on any instrument in the system
• Rearrange or disconnect the TSP-Link cable connections between instruments
If initialization is not successful, you can check the event log for error messages that indicate the
problem. Some typical problems include:
• Two or more instruments in the system have the same node number
• There are no other instruments connected to the instrument performing the initialization
• One or more of the instruments in the system is turned off
• The actual number of nodes is less than the expected number
From the front panel:
1. Power on all instruments connected to the TSP-Link network.
2. Press the MENU key.
3. Under System, select Communication. The SYSTEM COMMUNICATIONS window opens.
4. Select the TSP-Link tab.
5. Select Initialize.
Using TSP commands:
To initialize the TSP-Link system, send the command:
tsplink.initialize()
To check the state of the TSP-Link system, send the command:
print(tsplink.state)
If initialization was successful, online is returned. If initialization was not successful, offline is
returned.
Sending commands to TSP-Link nodes
You can send remote commands to any instrument on the TSP-Link system by adding node[N]. to
the beginning of the remote command, where N is the node number.
For example, to sound the beeper on node 10, you would send the command:
node[10].beeper.beep(2, 2400)
To send a command to the master, you can interact with it as if it were a single instrument.
