Remote Operation
Commands 5
5-29
Table 5-2. Commands (continued)
EXTGUARD
Description Overlapped command, ignored if not in remote.
Sets the calibrator to internal or external guard. (The same as pressing EX GRD in local
operation.) The default is internal guard.
Parameter
ON (Sets the calibrator to external guard)
OFF (Sets the calibrator to internal guard)
EXTSENSE
Description Overlapped command, ignored if not in remote.
Selects internal or external sensing. (The same as pressing EX SNS in local operation.) The
default if internal sensing.
Parameter
ON (Sets the calibrator to external sensing)
OFF (Sets the calibrator to internal sensing)
FAULT?
Description Sequential command.
Returns the earliest fault code contained in the calibrator’s fault queue. After you get the
fault code, you can use the EXPLAIN? command to find out the meaning of the fault code. A
table of fault codes is also included in Chapter 4 of this manual.
A zero value is returned if there are no faults, so to read the entire contents of the fault
queue, repeat FAULT? until the response is "0."
Parameter None
Response (Integer) The fault code
FORMAT
Description Sequential command, ignored if not in remote.
Use with extreme care. Restores the contents of the EEPROM (Electrically-Erasable
Programmable Read Only Memory) to factory defaults. The EEPROM holds calibration
constants and setup parameters. You lose all calibration data permanently. The
CALIBRATION switch must be in the ENABLE position, or an execution fault occurs.
Parameter
ALL (Replaces the whole contents with defaults)
B5725 (Replaces 5725A cal constants with defaults)
CAL (Replaces all cal constants with defaults)
RNG (Replaces range cal constants with defaults)
SETUP (Replaces setup parameters with defaults)
GAL
Description Sequential command.
(Go to Alternate Language.) Selects the 5100B emulation remote mode. The new language
remains selected even after the power is turned off. The inverse command in 5100B mode,
to go back to normal mode, is a tilde (~).
Parameter L5100 5100B emulation remote mode
