Installation Procedure - HP 98568A Installation Instruction

HP 9111 A Graphics Tablet
Installation Procedure
The following procedure describes how to connect your HP 9111A Graphics
Tablet to your Series 300 computer. Before you do this, however, refer to the
manual(s) that came with your graphics table to:
• Unpack the graphics tablet.
• Check the line voltage setting.
• Check the fuse.
And now, the installation procedure ...
1. Play It Safe.
Turn your computer and graphics tablet off, if they are not already off.
2. Select Your Interface.
Use either the built-in HP-IB interface or an HP 98624A HP-IB Interface. If
using HP-UX, avoid placing the plotter on the same interface used by your
disk or tape drives, if possible. An HP-IB interface dedicated to the HP
9111A is strongly recommended.
3. Set the Address.
SKIP?
If this is the first (or only) HP 9111 A you are connecting to the
interface, you can skip to step 4. The address is preset to 6 and
need not be changed-unless you have changed the address of
some other device on the interface to 6.
a. Find the set of six switches near the HP-IB connector. The right-hand
five switches in this group determine the graphics tablet's address.
b. Set the address switches to 7 as shown in Figure 8-2, unless address 7 has
been used elsewhere. Refer to the manual that came with the graphics
tablet if you need additional switch settings.
