(Resistance Temperature Detector Type Default command) Sets the default Resistance
Temperature Detector (RTD) at power on and reset, which is saved in the Calibrator non-
volatile memory. (While saving configuration data in the non-volatile memory, a period
of about 2 seconds, the Calibrator does not respond to remote commands.)
Parameters: PT385 (100-ohm RTD, curve α=0.00385 ohms/ohm/°C)

Example: RTD_TYPE_D PT3926
Set the RTD default type to a 100-ohm RTD with curve α=0.003926 ohms/ohm/°C.

Example: RTD_TYPE_D? returns PT3926
Returns PT3926 when the RTD default type is a 100-ohm RTD with curve
α=0.003926 ohms/ohm/°C.

(Host Serial Port Set command) Sets the RS-232-C settings for the Calibrator rear panel
SERIAL 1 FROM HOST serial port, which is saved in the Calibrator non-volatile
memory. (While saving configuration data in the non-volatile memory, a period of about
2 seconds, the Calibrator does not respond to remote commands.) (To set the parameters
for the rear panel SERIAL 2 TO UUT serial port, see the UUT_SET command.) The
factory default values are shown below in bold type. (To return to the factory defaults,
see the FORMAT SETUP command.)
The interface selection sets the command response, with command echo back for
commands and error messages with TERM (terminal) or no echo back with COMP
(computer).
Parameters: <baud rate value>, 300, 600, 1200, 2400, 4800, 9600
