IEEE-488.2 Device Documentation
Requirements
Introduction
Section 4.9 of the IEEE Standard 488.2-1987 states: "All devices shall supply
information to the user about how the device has implemented this standard. " (In this
context, "device" means the Fluke 45 Dual Display Multimeter.) The information in
Appendix C is provided in compliance with this requirement.
Implementation of IEEE Standard 488.2-1987
Items 1-23 below correspond, one-to-one, to the specific items of information required by
Section 4.9, "Device Documentation Requirements", of the Standard. The information
supplied by Fluke in response is italicized. (Throughout Appendix C, the word "Section"
refers to the section(s) in the Standard, not this manual.)
1. A list of IEEE 488.2 Interface Function subsets implemented, Section 5.
IEEE-488. 1 interface functions implemented in the Fluke 45 are listed under
"IEEE-488 (Option -05)"capability codes in Appendix A.
2. A description of device behavior when the address is set outside the range 0-30,
Section 5.2.
It is not possible to set the Fluke 45 address outside the specified range.
3. A description of when a user initiated address change is recognized by the device.
An address change is recognized when set via the address editor which is entered by
pressing S), then J (ADDR). This address will be used until it is changed.
4. A description of the device setting at power-on, Section 5.12. Any commands which
modify the power-on settings shall also be included.
