Configure the Software (Optional)

The default settings for the NI-488.2 software work for most applications and devices.

However, you might want to change a device name or primary address. Also, if more than one GPIB interface or external box is installed, you might want to associate a device with a particular interface.

You can examine and adjust the configuration of the software using the NI-488

Config control panel utility. For information on running the configuration utility and for information about the configurable software parameters, refer to Chapter 6, GPIB

Configuration Utility , in the NI-488.2 User Manual for Macintosh.
