who has HP 3314A GPIB document?

[bluesky2000]

hi all,
I am working on HP 3314A now. This is a old function Generator. But I couldn't find the document to program it. Does anybody have it(PDF format)? Please contact me if anybody 's like to give me a copy. Thanks.

Some Googling led me to a Purdue University page where somebody is hosting a collection of 3314a manuals in PDF format:

http://www.ecn.purdue.edu/EE440L/manual/default.htm

If you're trying to program the instrument from an arbitrary development environment, you are probably after the fifth manual listed, the "Remote Operation" one.

If you have the luxury of using LabVIEW and would like to avoid reinventing the wheel to programmatically control this instrument, you can find a LabVIEW driver for the 3314a at http://ni.com/idnet .

And when you are ready to have some fun, connect a speaker to the output
terminals, hold down the "Start Freq" button, and cycle the power. Enjoy
the 3+ minutes of music. 🙂
