• If your system uses an external controller and the HP E1406 Command Module, put the digitizer in the servant area of the Command Module. This enables the module to function as the HP-IB interface to the digitizer. The HP E1406 Command Module has a factory set logical address of 0 and a servant area switch setting of 255. Using the factory settings, it is not necessary to change the logical address of the digitizer (40) to place it in the servant area of the Command Module. • If the digitizer i
