Using the display during remote control
You can observe the screen while a remote control script is executed. This is helpful for

tested program script is to be executed repeatedly.
► To switch on the display, do one of the following:
● Tap the "View" button in the upper left corner of the touch screen.
● Use the
SYSTem:DISPlay:UPDate ON
command.
► To switch off the display, do one of the following:
● Tap the "View" button again.
● Use the
SYSTem:DISPlay:UPDate OFF
command.
