Remote Commands
The IEEE-488/RS-232 remote calibration commands for the Product are shown
in this section alphabetically. This list ignores the * character that is used as the
first character in the common commands. The remote commands duplicate
works that can be done from the front panel in local operation.
Note
For remote commands pertaining to normal operation of the Product,
see the Operators Manual.
IEEE-488 (GPIB) and RS-232 Applicability Each command title shown in this
section shares the same remote interface applicability, IEEE-488 (general
purpose interface bus, or GPIB) and RS-232 remote operations, and command
group: Sequential, Overlapped, and Coupled.
Sequential Commands – Commands executed immediately as they are found
in the data stream are sequential commands. All commands that is not
overlapped or coupled are sequential.
Overlapped Commands – Commands that take added time to execute are
overlapped commands. The execution time of these commands can overlap the
subsequent command.
Coupled Commands – Commands that “couple” in a compound command
sequence are coupled commands. Some examples are CUR_POST and OUT.
You must take precautions to be sure one command does not disable a second
command and cause a fault.
