Observe these rules when you use your logic scope with a GPIB network:
H Assign a unique device address to each device on the bus. No two devices
can share the same device address.
H Do not connect more than 15 devices to any one bus.
H Connect one device for every 2 meters (6 feet) of cable used.
H Do not use more than 20 meters (65 feet) of cable to connect devices to a
bus.
H Turn on at least two-thirds of the devices on the network while using the
network.
H Connect the devices on the network in a star or linear configuration as shown
in Figure 1–4. Do not use loop or parallel configurations.
