Abstract

PURPOSE:To use only a desired device to operate the titled system without giving any effect to other devices even though the power supply of a device under an unused state is turned off, by providing a switch part which connects and disconnects a signal line. CONSTITUTION:Plural devices 3 are connected to a standard digital interface GPIB cable 4 to form an interface bus control system. A switch part 5 interlocks a power supply switch 6 of the device 3 and connects and disconnects a signal line of a GPIB bus connector part in response to ON and OFF of the switch 6 respectively. Therefore the signal lines between the part 2 and transceiver bus control parts 1A and 1B are cut simultaneously by the part 5. As a result, it is possible to operate the system only with a desired device without affecting other devices although a device having a turned-on power supply is connected to a device having a turned-off power supply via a GPIB cable 4 and through the connector part 2.

When trying to operate a system by connecting multiple devices with GPIB interface functions, you must: ・ Set each device as a controller, talker, or listener and operate it with each function. (There is only one device in the system), but it performs talker or listener settings for other devices connected to the GPIB bus. In some cases, a device with a controller function can communicate with other devices. Initialize the system configuration on the condition that the controller function can be transferred, and then: ・ The talker sends data to the listener, while the listener receives the data sent from the talker. Data is sent and received using .

In this way, when a system is constructed by connecting a plurality of devices equipped with GPIB interfaces, it is necessary to program each device to have a controller, talker, or listener function depending on the purpose of use.

However, when assembling a system, when there are devices that do not require data transmission and reception, all devices in the system are connected with GPIB cables, so the frequency of signal level drop or noise pickup of the cables is low. Therefore, there is an inconvenience in that devices connected by cables must be powered on regardless of whether they are being used or not.

<Object of the Invention> The present invention makes it possible to connect/disconnect the signal line between the connector section and the transceiver bus at the same time as turning on/on the power of the device, thereby turning off the power of the device when it is not in use. The present invention provides a GPIB interface bus control method that allows the system to be operated with only the necessary devices without causing any trouble to other devices.

FIG. 2 is a block diagram showing details of the main parts of the device 3. G
A switch section 5 for connecting/disconnecting the signal line is provided between the signal line of the PIB bus connector section 2 and the interface transceiver bus control sections IA and IB of the device l connected thereto.

This switch section 5 is interlocked with the power switch 6 of the device 3, and when the power switch 6 is turned on, the signal line is connected, and when the power switch 6 is turned off, the signal line is disconnected.

With the above-described configuration, even if a certain device 3 in the system becomes unused and is turned off (power switch 6 is turned off), the switch section 5 simultaneously connects the GPIB bus connector section 2 and the transceiver bus. The signal line between control units IA and IB is disconnected.

As a result, even though the device whose power is turned off is in the state where the GPIB bus connector section 2 is connected to the device whose power is turned on by the GPIB cable 4, it cannot be connected to other devices. The system can be operated with only the necessary equipment without any hindrance.

<Effects of the Invention> As described above, by adding a bus connection/disconnection control unit, the present invention enables the power supply to be turned on by turning on the power of the device to be operated while a large number of devices are connected with GPIB cables. The system can be operated by connecting only these devices with GPIB cables, and devices that are powered off will not adversely affect the operating system.

In addition, even if a large number of devices are connected in this way, you can reduce power consumption and connect devices freely by simply turning on the power to the devices as needed. It is useful because it eliminates the need for unnecessary operations such as connecting and disconnecting the connector.
