Now, define the STARTUP MACRO as 2…
ON STARTUP DOMACRO 2
After the MACROs have been defined, power is removed from the
Micro488/EX and it is located at the site of the test equipment. Apply power
to the instruments first. After connecting the IEEE cables, apply power to the
Micro488/EX. It is always a good practice to provide some visual indication
that the STARTUP MACRO has executed. This is the reason for the REMOTE
command in MACRO 2.
It was not necessary to issue the LOG ON command within the
STARTUP MACRO. STARTUP executes LOG ON prior to invoking the
STARTUP MACRO.
After the data has been collected, the power is removed from the
Micro488/EX and returned to the local site. The data can now be READ from
the LOG buffer.
