• Remote with Lockout
The remote with lockout state can be entered from remote or local with lockout, but
not directly from local. Remote with lockout is similar to the remote state, but
restricted: the “Go To Local Control” softkey label does not appear on the Control
Display. To return the calibrator to the local with lockout state, the GPIB controller
sends GTL. (With some IEEE-488 controllers, you can do this manually by executing
a WBYTE statement.) To return the calibrator to the local state, the GPIB controller
unasserts the REN control line. (In BASIC, this is accomplished by sending the
LOCAL command.) When the calibrator is in remote with lockout, the Control
Display appears as follows for some controllers:
