How do I assign an instrument as a Client to my controller?

Select “Client Instrument Setup” from the menu drop-down.

 

Select an instrument you want to configure

 

Configure the instrument, address, and port.  Note the following:

 

All devices on the same Client port must utilize the same protocol.

 

An address of zero (0) will disable the instrument.

 

Controllers that provide dual functions must have the same address assigned for both.

 

If your instrument is not shown in the list, use User Instruments 1-16 along with the Generic Instrument Setup menu (see manual for additional details).

 

• Client 1 = terminals 5 (-) and 6 (+)

• Client 2 = terminals 22 (+) and 23 (-)

• RS-232 = 9-pin port on controller’s face
