Field Descriptions
Serial In
This field selects the destination of characters received by the Test Set on the
serial port.
• Inst configures the serial port to connect to an external ASCII terminal or computer
to enter IBASIC programs, or to control the Test Set using an external keyboard.
• IBASIC is used to allow the IBASIC controller to read the serial port while a program
is running.
Operating Considerations
If a serial printer is connected, the PRINT command causes the printer to take
control of the serial port until printing is done.
This setting is maintained after the instrument is turned off.
