RTD (Resistance Temperature Detector)
Example: TSENS_TYPE? returns TC
Returns TC when the temperature sensor type is a thermocouple.
*TST?
Sequential Overlapped
Coupled
IEEE-488 RS-232

x
(Self Test command) Initiates self-test and returns a 0 for pass or a 1 for fail. If any
faults are detected, they are displayed on screen (terminal mode) or are logged into the
fault queue where they can be read by the ERR? query (computer mode).
Response: 0 (pass self test)
1 (fail self test)
Example: *TST? returns 1
Returns 0 when self test is successful.
UNCERT?
Sequential Overlapped
Coupled
IEEE-488 RS-232
x x xx
x
(Uncertainties command) Retums specified uncertainties for the present output. If there
are no specifications for an output, returns zero.
Parameter: 1. (optional) Preferred unit of primary output uncertainty or PCT (default)
2. (optional) Preferred unit of secondary output uncertainty or
PCT (default)
Response: 1. (float) 90-day specified uncertainty of primary unit
2. (float) 1-year specified uncertainty of primary output
3. (character) Unit of primary output uncertainty
4. (float) 90-day specified uncertainty of secondary unit
5. (float) 1-year specified uncertainty of secondary output
6. (character) Unit of secondary output uncertainty.
Example: UNCERT? returns 6.120E-01,6.150E-01,PCT,9.50E-02,
1.150E-01,PCT
UUT_FLUSH
Sequential Overlapped

x
(Flush UUT Receive Buffer command) Flushes the UUT receive buffer for data received
from the UUT over the Calibrator rear panel SERIAL 2 TO UUT serial port. The
command may be sent over gpib or RS-232 ports, but applies to SERIAL 2 TO UUT
serial port operation.
Parameter: (None)
Example: UUT_FLUSH
Flush the Calibrator receive data buffer for the UUT.
UUT_RECV?
Sequential Overlapped
Coupled
IEEE-488 RS-232
x x xx
x
(UUT Receive Data query) Returns data from the UUT in IEEE-488.2 Standard format
over the Calibrator rear panel SERIAL 2 TO UUT serial port. The command may be sent
over gpib or RS-232 ports, but applies to SERIAL 2 TO UUT serial port operation.
Response: <data> (binary block data in definite length format from UUT)
