RS-232 Interface Commands
RS-232 Interface Commands
Use the front-panel I/O MENU to select the baud rate, parity, and number of data bits (see pages 163 and 164 for more information).
SYSTem:LOCal
Place the multimeter in the local mode for RS-232 operation. All keys on the front panel are fully functional.
SYSTem:REMote
Place the multimeter in the remote mode for RS-232 operation. All keys on the front panel, except the LOCAL key, are disabled.
It is very important that you send theSYSTem:REMote command |
4 |
to place the multimeter in the remote mode. Sending or receiving data |
|
over the RS-232 interface when not configured for remote operation can |
|
cause unpredictable results. |

SYSTem:RWLock |
|
Place the multimeter in the remote mode for RS-232 operation. |
|
This command is the same as the SYSTem:REMote command except |
|
that all keys on the front panel are disabled, including the LOCAL key. |
|
Ctrl-C |
|
Clear the operation in progress over the RS-232 interface and discard |
|
any pending output data. This is equivalent to the IEEE-488 device clear |
|
action over the GPIB interface. |
