Display Errors While Remote
controls the announcement of errors on the 8000’s
screen. When this setting is set to
Yes
, then all errors will pop up on the 8000 screen,
even in remote mode. When the setting is
No
, error’s are not displayed on the 8000
screen while in remote mode (but will be displayed in local mode). This
does not
affect the error list which is queried via the GPIB
ERR?
query. It is intended to keep
the 8000 screen free of error messages while operating in remote mode.
Use remote screen
is intended to help improve throughput on fully loaded 8000
systems. Although throughput improvement is not significant, it may reduce slightly
the latency time between the sending of a GPIB command and the actual time the
command is processed. When this setting is
Yes
, the 8000 will switch to a “remote”
screen when entering remote mode, although the
MENU
and
MASTER
buttons can
be used to switch out of this screen. When leaving remote mode, the 8000 will switch
to the master display, unless the user has left the remote screen.
The
GPIB Address
is the IEEE-488 device address assigned to the 8000. Valid
addresses are 1 to 31.
Terminal Mode
enhances the interface with the 8000 when communicating via the
RS232 in a ANSI/VT100 compatible serial terminal.
