General bus commands
Commands and associated statements
General commands are those commands, such as DCL, that have the same general meaning
regardless of the instrument. Table 12-1 lists the general bus commands.
REN (remote enable)
The remote enable command is sent to Model 6514 by the controller to set up the instrument
for remote operation. Generally, the instrument should be placed in the remote mode before you
attempt to program it over the bus. Simply setting REN true does not actually place the instru-
ment in the remote state. You must address the instrument to listen after setting REN true before
it goes into remote.
Note that the instrument does not have to be in remote to be a talker.
Also, note that all front panel controls except for LOCAL and POWER are inoperative while
the instrument is in remote. You can restore normal front panel operation by pressing the
LOCAL key.
