GPIB Programming Interface Examples
Local Lockout Function
The HP Basic function LOCAL LOCKOUT and the other listed IO library functions
disable the front panel keys including the Local key. With the Local key
disabled, only the controller (or a hard reset of line power) can restore local
control.
Local Function
The HP Basic function LOCAL and the other listed functions return the signal
generator to local control with a fully enabled front panel.
Library Function Statement Initialization Command
HP Basic The LOCAL LOCKOUT function disables all front-panel
signal generator keys. Return to local control can occur only
by cycling power on the instrument, when the LOCAL
command is sent or if the
Preset key is pressed.

719
VISA Library The VISA library, at this time, does not have a similar
command.
N/A
NI-488.2 The LOCAL LOCKOUT function disables all front-panel
signal generator keys. Return to local control can occur only
by cycling power on the instrument, when the LOCAL
command is sent or if the
Preset key is pressed.
SetRWLS (parameter
list)
SICL The Keysight SICL igpibllo prevents function prevents user
access to front panel keys operation. The function puts an
instrument, identified by the id parameter, into remote mode
with local lockout. The parameter id is the session identifier
and instrument address list.
igpibllo (id)
Library Function Statement Initialization Command
HP Basic The LOCAL 719 function returns the signal generator to
manual operation, allowing access to the signal generator’s
front panel keys.
10 LOCAL 719
VISA Library The VISA library, at this time, does not have a similar
command.
N/A
NI-488.2 The NI-488.2 library function places the interface in local
mode and allows operation of the signal generator’s front
panel keys. The ud parameter in the parameter list is the
interface or device descriptor.
ibloc (int ud)
SICL The Keysight SICL function puts the signal generator into
Local operation; enabling front panel key operation. The id
parameter identifies the session.
