4.11 System Remote Commands (Remote Commands Only)
4.11.2 Lock the Front-panel keys (Remote Command Only)
Disables the instrument keyboard to prevent local input when the instrument is
controlled remotely. Annunciation showing a “K” for KLOCk (keyboard lock) alerts
the local user that the keyboard is locked. KLOCk is similar to the GPIB Local
Lockout function; namely that no front-panel keys are active except for the Power
Standby key. (The instrument is allowed to be turned-off if KLOCk is ON.) The KLOCk
command is used in remote control situations where Local Lockout cannot be used.
Although primary intent of KLOCk is to lock-out the front panel, it will lock-out
externally connected keyboards through USB. KLOCk has no effect on externally
connected pointing devices (mice).
The front panel ‘Local’ key (Cancel/Esc) has no effect if KLOCk is ON.
See also "Local Button" on page 134.
