Programming
instructions
may be either
initia-
tion or string commands. The
initiation commands
are
one or two character messages that are
operated
on as
soon as they
arrive unless they are part of a string, in
which case they are executed in sequence within the
string. The only exception is reset, which has an imme-
diate response. String commands can be Control Com-
mands, Storage Commands (used with the 5101 A only),
Data Instructions, Status requests or a combination of
the first three, and are sent in a series
of one
to
thirty-two
characters that are, with the exceptions
noted
in the
text, concluded with a terminator character.

described in
Sections
605
and
606
respectively, of the Instruction Manual. Communication
between the controlling device and the instrument inter-
face must be in the standard ASCII codes. The codes
accepted by the instrument and a brief explanation of
each is given in Table
2-14.
2-124.
When one of the
optional interface modules is
installed in the
instrument
the Remote Mode can be
activated either
manually
or from the Control Device.
The
instrument can be
placed in remote through the
IEEE interface by
addressing
it with the address assigned
to the instrument.
Remote can be accomplished through
the
Bit
Serial
interface by programming the character
“J”
as described in later paragraphs. The instrument
is
put in remote from the front panel by toggling the
RE-
MOTE switch. Unless the front
panel is
disabled or
