I wrote some Python code which is doing a very similar thing,  talking to
HP disk drives over GPIB.

https://codeberg.org/Boeingflieger/lif80utils

In particular, the code within the lif80utils/src/lif80utils/amigo.py file
should be helpful.

What I'm doing there is opening a separate connection for each secondary
address. This is working like a charm and much easier than setting the SAD
for one connection over and over.
