Remote Interface Features
The 5071A‘s remote or serial port interface provides a variety of features for
such tasks as:
Terminal operation (or terminal emulation) to allow single-line command
entry and display of instrument response.
Remote control via computer programs or scripts to facilitate multiple
command-line tasks (with or without a modem).
Output to a printer to provide hardcopy record of the instruments internal
