Various messages are available for controlling the instrument through the interfaces.
Messages can be either program messages sent from the controllers such as PC's, to the instru-
ment, or response messages sent from the instrument to the controllers.
During remote control operation,
RMT
appears on the Measurement screen, and all operation keys
except the F1 key are disabled.
Pressing the
F1 [LOCAL]
key disables remote control and re-enables the operating keys.
In the local lockout state (GP-IB command LLO: Local Lock Out (p. 126)), selecting the [LOCAL] display on
the screen is disabled.
In this state, send the GTL command, or turn the instrument off and back on to re-establish local control.
If the Setting screen was displayed when remote control was enabled, the instrument returns to the Measure-
ment screen automatically.
