4 REMOTE PROGRAMMING
Remote control programming facilties parallel those available under front panel control.
Additional facilities provided are line (instruction) numbering, JUMP instructions, and
listing to remote device for external storage, etc.
All remote learnt program manipulations can be performed whilst the 1253 is making
measurements, but Execute Program commands will not be implemented until the
measurement is complete.

.1 PROGRAMMING COMMANDS
The function of each command is explained below (in greater detail than Chapter 8).
Note : n or m repesent program numbers.

*Q
*Cn
*K n , m
JP i
*P n
EP n
?PN n
Enters ‘program learn’ mode for program n ( 1 to 9). All subsequent
command codes (except *Q) are interpreted as program instructions
and learnt in the order entered. Return to ‘normal’ mode by using
*Q.
Enters ‘program edit’ mode for program n (1 to 9) at the first (line)
instruction.
Moves editing to next line.
Moves editing to previous line.
Deletes the line currently selected by the *E, *F or *B commands.
Enters ‘insert’ mode. Subsequent command codes (except *Q) are
interpreted as program instructions and inserted before the line
currently selected by the *E, *F or *B commands. Return to
‘program edit’ mode with *F or *B .
Resumes ‘normal’ mode, after editing, ending the current
programming operation.
Clears program n (1 to 9). Programs must be cleared before being
copied to or learnt.
Copies source program n (1 to 9) to destination program m (1 to 9).
Interpreted as ‘jump’ instruction to line i (integer 1 to 99). The
destination line must be suitably numbered (see below).
Lists program n (1 to 9) to an external device for storage or
examination.
Executes program n (0 to 9). ( n =0 is equivalent to BREAK.)
Interrogates the 1253 on the number of lines in program n (1 to 9).
