2.8 General System Control
2.8.1 INIT
Syntax
INIT
Parameter None.
Description • In RS-232C, starts the initialization of the optical head (this takes at least 10 s). This
procedure includes the auto-calibration sequence (see section AUTO_CAL, p. 30 ).
• In GPIB, cancel all the pending commands stored in the GPIB buffer.
Response • RS-232C:

2.8.2 ECHON
Applicability RS-232C only.
Syntax
ECHON
Parameter None.
Description Activates the "echo" mode: the T100S-HP sends an echo of each character received back
through the serial cable.
Since some terminals and terminal emulation programs do not feature local echo, this
function can be useful for visual monitoring of the characters keyed in at the terminal or
for having a secure link.
Response
OK
2.8.3 ECHOFF
Applicability RS-232C only.
Syntax
ECHOFF
Parameter None.
Description Cancels the "echo" mode (default setting).
In addition, ECHON mode is restored to ECHOFF if you press the
Remote key to return to
manual-mode operation.
Response
OK
