(Host Serial Port Set query) Returns the RS-232-C settings for the Calibrator rear panel
SERIAL 1 FROM HOST serial port. (To return 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.)

Returns the parameters for the rear panel SERIAL 1 FROM HOST serial port, as shown,
when set to the factory default values.

(Serial Poll String command) Sets the Serial Poll String (string up to 40 characters)
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.) The SPLSTR is sent to the host over the serial interface when a ^P
(<cntl> P) character is sent. The default format is:
SPL: %02x %02x %04x %04x
where the term %02x (8 bits) means print the value in hexadecimal with exactly 2 hex
digits, and %04x (16 bits) means print the value in hexadecimal with exactly 4 hex digits.
The string representations are:
SPL: (STB) (ESR) (ISCR0) (ISCR1)
See the commands, respectively, *STB?, *ESR?, ISCR0?, and ISCR1?. A typical
string in the default format sent to the host is: SPL: 44 00 0000 1000. This
command is for format. For values instead of format, enter a ^P (<cntl> p) character.
Also see the SRQSTR command.
Parameter: “<string>\n” (\n represents the NEWLINE character, hex 0A)
