(for a Switchbox or Scanning Voltmeter Instrument). Switch Description The HP E1364A 16-Channel Form C Switch Module is a B-Size VXIbus and VMEbus register-based product which can be used for switching/scanning, control, and digital output applications. The switch can operate in a B-Size VXIbus or VMEbus mainframe or (with an adapter) in a C-Size VXIbus mainframe. - Page 13 NO, NC, and C terminal connectors on the terminal module. Figure 1-1.

Page 15: Switch Card Numbers
For a multiple-module switchbox, the card numbers are 01, 02,...,nn. The module with the lowest logical address is card number 01, the module with the next-lowest logical address is card number 02, etc. (See the HP 75000 Series B Installation and Getting Started Guide for a definition of logical addresses.) -

To read or write to specific registers, you must use the register address. Since the addresses for HP 75000 Series B or Series C plug-in modules are A00 through A15, use the VME A16 mnemonic for the address space. The address space within the mainframe/command module memory map depends on the mainframe/command module used. -
