Command Descriptions

Control of the Digital 488 is implemented with 17 bus commands, described here

in detail. Examples are given for many of the commands using a Hewlett-Packard 85
computer in the immediate mode. It is implied that each command is terminated by the
'END LINE' key on the HP-85 in order to execute the command. The Digital488 bus
address should be set to 18 for all examples.

Attention!

It is necessary that the EXECUTE command (X) follow
all command strings sent to the Digital488. No commands
are executed until an X is received by the Digital488.
