If you have opt 001 or opt 002 you can control the internal DC bias over the bus.
make sure you have nothing attached to the ext bias BNC connector on the back.
using bias to test varactor diode: • #1693 Capacitance vs D...

Back in the days when advanced functions were included, but before the days when advanced controls were included.
Loveliness! GPIB is to test gear what MIDI is to synthesizers. One device to rule them all!
Is that the same as HPIB in the title ? because I've heard of GPIB ?
@@andymouse yes, the same. It used to be a Hewlett Packard proprietary interface, but when it became widely adapted (by e.g. Tektronix) and popular, other manufacturers named it GPIB (General Purpose Interface Bus) and it was standarized as IEEE488.
Thanks !!:)@@KeritechElectronics
Very cool indeed !....cheers.
Just to mention... HPIB is a hardware protocol... IBasic (ancient now) can be used to send commands over HPIB (Just like The Guy does, in the vid.) SCPI and VISA can do it over HPIB too... and also on the newer hardware protocols, like Ethernet (not so new... but newer than HPIB) Not sure if IBasic was ever implemented to use Ethernet? ... maybe?
Well done! Bravo!
Do the measurements match the other instrument?
Exploring machines' accuracy does not seem to be a goal of this series.
He had a surprisingly biased energy about him! & his personality was so polarizing. probably had 2 much coffee! oj, scrambled eggs /W cheese. on toast!
Can it measure the effect of current on inductor behavior?
I'm so old I remember when it was still called HPIB. Production engineers used to spend their days doing this.
Where HPIB is still used... it's called "Test and Measurement Engineering" now... and is distinct from "Production Engineering" (PE being... AFAIK... mostly in the planning, and optimization of production... whereas and AFIK, Industrial Engineers are more on the floor) Anyway... Ethernet, WIFI, CAN, and Fiber Optics are the hardware protocols you see on factory floors. Besides the T&M labs... AFAIK... HPIB hasn't been on the floor in a long long time.
I think we can both agree that John is old. 😎
I started programming in 1966 and it was in BASIC on the GE timesharing system. I never wanted to see it since then. APL!
