1. Remotely Controlling the T100S-HP
You can remotely control the T100S-HP through the following ports:
•
IEEE-488.1 connector
•
RS-232C connector
This section explains how to use these ports to remotely control the T100S-HP.
1.1
Switching Between Remote and Local Mode
Procedures
Entering the Remote Mode
•
If the T100S-HP receives data from either the RS-232C or the IEEE-488.1 interfaces, it
automatically enters the remote control mode and the LED on the
Remote
key is lit to
indicate that remote control is active.
When the T100S-HP is operating in remote mode, all function keys on the front panel
are disabled apart from the
Remote
key.
Switching Back to Local Mode
•
To go back to local mode, press the
Remote
key or use the
LOCAL
command
(RS-232C only, see
In GPIB, if the T100S-HP is set to local lockout condition (see commands in section
IEEE Standard Functions, p. 18
), the "Local lockout" message is displayed. This
means that the T100S-HP is locked into GPIB remote control operation: all front
panel control are disabled and local operating mode can no longer be restored using
the
Remote
key.
To return to local mode, enter the
Go to local
GPIB command.
