(Range Lock query) Return whether or not the preset dc volts or dc current single output
range is locked.
Response: ON (range is locked and autoranging is not allowed)
OFF (range is not locked and autoranging is allowed)
Example: RANGELCK? returns OFF
Return OFF when the range for dc volts or dc current is not locked (autoranging
enabled).

(Reference Output query) Return the present value of the reference when editing the
output (error mode). If not editing the output using the INCR command, the return is 0
(0E+00). The reference value is set with the OUT, NEWREF or MULT commands. To
determine which quantity is being edited, use the EDIT? and OUT? commands.
Response: <reference value>
Example: REFOUT? returns 0E+00
Return 0 when the output is not being edited.
Example: REFOUT? returns 2.500000E-01
Return .250 when the output is being edited and the reference is, for example, 250 mV.

(Remote command) Place the 5500A Calibrator into the remote state. This command
duplicates the IEEE-488 REN (Remote Enable) message. When in the remote state, the
Control Display shows the softkey “REMOTE CONTROL Go to Local.” Pressing this
softkey returns the 5500A Calibrator to local operation If the front panel is locked out,
the Control Display shows the softkey “REMOTE CONTROL LOCAL LOCK OUT.”
(See the LOCKOUT command.) To unlock the front panel, use the LOCAL command, or
cycle the 5500A Calibrator power switch.
Parameter: (None)
Example: REMOTE
Place the 5500A Calibrator in the remote state and display this state on the front panel
Control Display with a softkey REMOTE CONTROL.
