DISPlay:STATe
Syntax
DISPlay[:WINDow][:STATe] {OFF | ON}
DISPlay[:WINDow][:STATe]?
Description
This command disables or enables the instrument's front-panel display. For security reasons or for a slight
increase in measurement rates, you may want to turn off the front-panel display. When disabled, the
front-panel LCD display goes entirely dark.
Remarks
l The entire front panel display is disabled or enabled by this command. The channel key LED's remain
active.
l
Pressing the BACK key will turn the display back on.
l Sending a text message to the display (see DISPlay:TEXT command) overrides the display state; this
means that you can display a message even if the display is turned off.
l The display mode is unaffected by a Factory Reset (*RST command), or an Instrument Pre-
set (SYSTem:PRESet command). It is enabled at power-on.
Return Format
The query returns the display enable state: 0 (OFF) or 1 (ON).
Examples
The following example disables the front-panel display.
