The Generator
implements
a subset
of
IEEE-488 Interface functions
defined by
the IEEE
Standard
488-
1978. Table
2-9
summarizes the IEEE-488 Interface
functions
implemented.
2-43.
Address Mode
In the address mode,
the Generator may be operated
from local (using the
front panel keys) or
from remote
(using the IEEE-488 Interface).
The following paragraphs
describe the
operation
of the Generator in both
states and transitions
between the states.
The available IEEE-488
messages
and their descriptions
for the address
mode of operation
are
presented
in Table
2-10.
2-44.
LOCAL
OPERATION
The Generator
powers up in
the local mode. When
in local
mode, the following
conditions are
present:
The
front panel indicator
REM, is
not lit.
Device trigger (GET),
device clear (DCL),
and selected device clear
(SDC) interface
messages are ignored.
All device-dependent
messages are ignored.
If the data
output was requested while
the Generator
was in the remote
mode, the data
output
of a talker may
be sent.
2-45.
GOING
FROM LOCAL TO REMOTE
The Generator
switches from local
to remote when
the “my listen
address message”
(MLA) is
received,
and the Remote
Enable (REN) signal
is true.
2-46.
REMOTE
OPERATION
When in the
remote mode, the following
conditions
are present:
The front
panel REM indicator
is lit.
Device trigger
(GET), device
clear (DCL), and selected
device clear
(SDC) interface
messages
are processed.
All
device-dependent
messages are processed
during the remote mode.
