Interface

 

(Option)

 

The USB-Serial Interface allows you to connect AT526 to a USB port on your PC. 

 

NOTE: 
Please install the USB-Serial driver before using USB-Serial Interface.   
The Applent USB-Serial interface model is ATN2.

Before you can control the AT526 by issuing RS-232 commands from built-in RS-232 
controller connected via its DB-9 connector, you have to configure the RS-232 baud 
rate. 
The AT526’s built-in RS-232 interface uses the SCPI language. 
The configuration of RS-232 
RS-232 configuration is as follows: 
Data bits:  8-bit 
Stop bits:  1-bit 
Parity:  

none 

To set up the baud rate 

Step  1.  Press the [Meas] or [Setup] key 
Step  2.  Press the [SYSTEM] bottom soft-key. 
Step  3.  Use the cursor key to select [BAUD] field 
Step  4.  Use the soft keys to select baud rate.
