With an extended hardwire interface, selecting DTR allows a hardware
handshake to occur. With hardware handshake, hardware signals control data
flow.
XON/XOFF
XON/XOFF stands for Transmit On/Transmit Off. With this
mode the receiver (controller or logic analyzer) controls data flow and
can request that the sender (logic analyzer or controller) stop data flow.
By sending XOFF (ASCII 17) over its transmit data line, the receiver
requests that the sender disables data transmission. A subsequent XON
(ASCII 19) allows the sending device to resume data transmission.
A controller sending data to the logic analyzer should send no more than 32
bytes of data after an XOFF.
The logic analyzer will not send any data after an XOFF is received until an
XON is received.
Data Bits
Data bits are the number of bits sent and received per character that
represent the binary code of that character.
Information is stored in bytes (8 bits at a time) in the logic analyzer. Data can
be sent and received just as it is stored, without the need to convert the data.
Lockout Command
Use the :SYSTem:LOCK ON command to lockout the front-panel controls.
When this function is on, all controls (except the power switch) are entirely
locked out. Local control can only be restored by sending the command
:SYSTem:LOCK OFF.
Restoring Local Control
The :SYSTem:LOCK OFF command will restore front-panel control. Cycling
power will restore local control, but will also reset certain RS-232-C states.
