Settings Changes Via the Serial Port
See Section 10: Communications for information on serial port
communications and meter access levels. The SET commands in Table 9.1
operate at Access Level 2 (the =>> prompt). To change a specific setting, enter
the command:
SET n s TERSE
When you issue the SET command, the meter presents a list of settings, one at
a time. Enter a new setting, or press <Enter> to accept the existing setting.
Editing keystrokes are shown in Ta ble 9.2.
The meter checks each entry to ensure that it is within the setting range. If it is
not, an
Out of Range message is generated, and the meter prompts for the
setting again.
When all the settings are entered, the meter displays the new settings and
prompts for approval to enable them. Answer Y <Enter> to enable the new
settings.
When changes are made to the global, SER, front-panel, meter, or logic
settings (see Table 9.1), the meter disables while it saves the new settings and
pulses the SALARM bit for approximately one second. If Logic settings are
changed, the meter can be disabled for as long as 15 seconds.

s = the name of the specific setting you wish to jump to and begin setting.
If s is not entered, the meter starts at the first setting.

Use this parameter to speed up the SET command. If you wish to
review the settings before saving, do not use the TERSE option.
