Switching to Manual Control - Local Key
In remote control mode a status message appears in the display header. The rest of the display
remains unchanged and shows the current instrument status, i.e. the status which exists under the
remote control settings. The instrument can be operated (e.g. menus can be opened). However, it is not
possible to enter or change values.
The status message additionally indicates whether the
LOCAL key is disabled or enabled (see also
Chapter 5, Chapter 5 , section "Switch-Over to Remote Control").
If the REMOTE status message is shown, the
LOCAL key switches the instrument from remote control
to manual control. The current command must be fully processed before the mode is switched,
otherwise the instrument switches immediately back to remote control.
If the REM-LLO status message (remote local lockout) is displayed, the instrument can be switched
from remote control to manual control by means of remote control only (e.g. with the Visual Basic
command CALL IBLOC (generator%)); the
LOCAL key is disabled. The key is disabled by remote
control with the interface message LLO.
When switching from remote control to manual control, the display update suppression function, if
active (
SETUP - GUI Update is O), is automatically deactivated ( SETUP - GUI Update is On).
Messages - Info Key
The INFO key opens a window containing a detailed description of every message displayed in the info
bar, see chapter 3, section "Info and Status Bar" and chapter 9, section "Error Messages".
