Yes, it doesn&#8217;t make any sense because GPIB is a different interface standard than USB, and this particular signal generator doesn&#8217;t even have GPIB, but before I figured this out my SDS 1104X-E &#8216;scope would always report that it couldn&#8217;t find the signal generator. I looked for any setting at all in both instruments which seemed to be relevant, and finally set the GPIB number on the signal generator to 1 simply because 18 seemed like an unlikely value.
