RS232 RUN MODE COMMAND SUMMARY
SERIAL RUN MODE COMMANDS
The commands listed in this section mirror (and in some cases extend) the functions that
are available from the touch screen of the Model 9840 when it is in Run Mode.
Each entry will include the name of the command, followed by a short description that
includes the command format, an example that shows what you would type (shown in
plain font) and what the Model 9840 would return (shown in italics).
