Hi all,
I got a 16530A and a 16531A (without the service manual that is..) that I need to install. Are there any connections necessary between those two? I can see that the 16530A has four connectors J2, J3, J4 and J5 where J4 and J5 are connected by a ribbon cable and on the the 16531A, there is a long ribbon cable that surely must be connected somewhere to the 16530A?! I'd be grateful if someone had the time to enlighten me :-)
BR, Steffen
The 16531A is the acquisition module.
The 16530A is the timebase module.
The timebase module needs to be in a slot "below" the acquisition module.
For example if the acquisition module is in slot "A" then the timebase module should be in slot "B".
The 16500 mainframe can be configured with up to four acquisition modules (slots A-D) and the time base module in slot E.
The cable from the acquisition module just above the timebase is connected to J2 of the timebase module.
The cable from the acquisition module two slots above the timebase is connected to J3 of the timebase module.
The cable from the acquisition module three slots above the timebase is connected to J4 of the timebase module.
The cable from the acquisition module four slots above the timebase is connected to J5 of the timebase module.
