Remote Control 
 
DL3000 electronic load can be connected to the PC via the USB, LAN, GPIB, or 
RS232 interface to build communication and realize remote control. The remote 
control can be realized by using SCPI (Standard Commands for Programmable 
Instruments) commands. DL3000 electronic load supports two ways of remote 
control: user-defined programming and PC software (e.g. RIGOL Ultra Sigma). 
 
When the instrument is in remote control, the    icon is displayed on the 
interface. The keypads on the front panel are locked. At this time, you can press 
Local to exit the remote mode.
