Chapter 2 Running the GPIB Utility
This chapter describes basic communications between the PCI-4302 and connected GPIB devices by using the
utility program included with the driver software. Proceed as follows:
1. Install the PCI-4302 in your computer. Then connect the board and GPIB devices using GPIB cables. Refer
to “3.2 Board Installation,” page 13 and “3.3 Cabling,” page 14.
2. Install the device driver software. Refer to “3.4 Driver Software Installation,” page 14.
3. Configure the driver software parameters. Refer to “3.8 Configuring the Driver Software Parameters,”
page 18.
If you do not know the address of the GPIB devices, you should refer to the documentation that came with them
to make sure of their addresses.
2.1 Initializing the GPIB Interface Board
The following steps show how to run the GPIB utility program and initialize the PCI-4302.
1. When you have successfully installed the driver software, Interface GPF-4301 is registered in the
Programs folder. To run the GPIB utility program, click the Start button, point to Programs, point to
Interface GPF-4301, and then click GPIB Utility. The Interface GPIB Board Utility Program main
window will appear.

2. Click Open New Device on the File menu.
3. The Open New Device dialog box will appear. Then select the board model you want to use, the GPIB
addresses, and termination method of the connected GPIB devices. Then click OK.
Click OK after filling
this dialog box.
Specify the GPIB address of the board in
hexadecimal. The address must not conflict
with the primary address of any other GPIB
devices.
Select a part number from the drop-down list.
Select the termination method specified in the
devices’ manuals.
Notes:
•The GPIB board list box contains part numbers of the boards installed in the host computer. Click
the board that you want to access. Refer to “6.3 Interface PCI Board Identification (RSW1),”
page 31.
•Type the GPIB address of the board in Primary Address. By default, this box has a value
configured by the control panel applet Interface GPIB Board System Configuration.
Refer to “3.8 Configuring the Driver Software Parameters,” page 18.
•Select the termination method corresponding with connected devices.
4. Initialize the devices connected to the GPIB.
a. Sending the IFC message
When the IFC line is asserted, every interface connected on the GPIB is initialized and the board
becomes Controller-in-charge. The CIC indicator is turned on as well as the ATN indicator.
Click the IFC button.
b. Sending the REN message
Click the REN button to assert the REN line.
Click the REN button.

c. Sending the SDC message
When the SDC message is sent, each device addressed to listen will be initialized. Check the primary
address of the GPIB device is not conflict with the GPIB address of the board.
Specify the GPIB address of the
device to clear in hexadecimal.
Click the Device Clear button.
Click the Clear button to
send the SDC message.
GPIB address:
The GPIB address is required to control the GPIB device. Specify this address to GPIB device so as not to
conflict with any other devices including the board.
Primary address, Secondary address:
Specify these addresses according to the GPIB devices. The secondary address may be required according to the
device.
•Primary address range: 00h through 1Eh
•Secondary address range: 60h through 7Eh
IFC (Interface clear):
The System Controller asserts the IFC line to initialize the bus. The devices on the bus are unaddressed. The
System Controller becomes Controller-in-charge.
Controller-in-charge:
A controller is a GPIB device that can address other devices to talk or to listen. The System Controller can take
control whenever it asserts the IFC line. Only one System Controller can exist in a GPIB system throughout the
operation. The System Controller capability cannot be passed to other devices. Only one active controller
(Controller-in-charge) can exist in a GPIB system at a time.
REN (Remote enable):
The System Controller asserts the IFC line to put the devices into remote programming mode.
SDC (Selected device clear):
This command is used to reset the devices currently addressed as Listener. The devices become device-specific
initial state.

2.4 Serial Polling
This section describes how to execute a serial poll. The following summarizes the serial poll.
•The GPIB devices request service from the Controller-in-charge by asserting the SRQ line.
•The Controller serial polls each of the device to see if it requested service. Once the controller has
determined which one of the devices requires service, it reads a status byte (STB) from that device.
Note: Conditions for requesting service differ depending on the GPIB devices. Refer to those devices’ manuals.
The SRQ indicator is turned on when the GPIB devices request service.
The SRQ indicator is turned on when
the GPIB devices request service.
1. Specify the GPIB address in hexadecimal in the Serial Poll group box.
Specify the GPIB addresses in hexadecimal.
The STB received from the
GPIB device is displayed here.
The SRQ indicator is turned off
when the device deasserts the SRQ
line after sending a status byte.
2. Click the Serial Poll button in the Mode group box.
3. The STB box will receive a status byte from the device.
