Transport Module, DMC, MSAM, and 5800 Remote Operation

> :SENSe:DATA? CSTatus:PDH:DS1:AIS

Query the AIS alarm result

1

If the unit is self-looped, it will detect the AIS.

> :SOURce:PDH:DS1:INSert:AIS OFF

Turn the alarm back off

> :SENSe:DATA? CSTatus:PDH:DS1:AIS

Query the AIS alarm result again

Configuring a timed

test

There are three test timing modes: not timed, timed test, and delayed-start timed test. This 
example demonstrates how to configure each of those. 

> :SENSe:TEST:ENABle OFF

Sets the test type to "Not Timed"

> :SENSe:TEST:ENABle ON

Sets the test type to "Timed Test"

> :SENSe:TEST:DURation 3600

Set the timed test duration in seconds

> :SENSe:TEST:ENABle DELAYED

Sets the test type to "Delayed-start timed test"

> :SENSe:TEST:DURation 3600

Set the timed test duration in seconds

> :SENSe:TEST:DELay:DATE "10/31/2011"

Set the start test date

> :SENSe:TEST:DELay:TIME "23:00:00"

Set the start test time

Exiting an application

To shut down an application through remote control, it must first be selected. If the applica-
tion is already selected and a session has been created, that session should be ended.

> :SYSTem:APPLication:SELect TermDs1Bert_121

> :EXIT 

or

> :SESSion:END

> :EXIT
