Remote Communications
7.1 Remote Communication
Configuration Overview
There are two types of remote communication interfaces which can be used by a
host computer to control or monitor the instrument. An RS-232C communications
port is standard equipment. Additionally, an IEEE-GPIB interface may be installed.
Device dependent information and protocol selection must be provided before an
interface can be used
NOTE: Remote Communications operation is covered in detail in section 7.4 on
page 7-4 through section 7.8 on page 7-41 .
Figure 7-1 Display Tree for Remote Communications Set-Up
Configuration of the Remote Communications is initiated by pressing the F3 key
(I/O) in the Program display and then selecting the REMOTE COMMUNICATIONS
function (F5) in the I/0 display. This will invoke the Remote Communications
Display (see
Figure 7-2 ). Upon entry, the cursor will be found at the last referenced
communications parameter. The parameters are contained on a single page.
NOTE: Communication stops when entering ’Source Maintenance’ and ’Cross
Talk Calibrate’ modes.
