Characteristics

System Requirements

Compatible with Tektronix instruments providing USBTMC-USB488 compliant USB ports supporting the protocol and USB extensions required for setting the adapter’s GPIB primary address. For USBTMC-USB488 instruments not supporting these USB extensions and protocol, the GPIB address defaults to address “1” and cannot be changed. Each adapter controls one instrument and does not support use of USB hubs.
