set tz
string
This command sets the timezone
string
for the instrument for use with the
NTP server, where
string
is a standard timezone string. Common strings are
listed in the “Timezone” screen description in Chapter 3.
Send:
set tz EST+5EDT
Receive:
set tz EST+5EDT ok
analog iout range
channel
This command reports the analog current output range setting for
channel
,
where
channel
must be between 1 and 6, inclusive. The following example
reports current output channel 4 is in the 4-20 mA range, according to
Table B–13
. This command responds with “feature not enabled” if the I/O
expansion board is not detected.
Send:
analog iout range 4
Receive:
analog iout range 4 2
set analog iout range
channel range
This command sets analog current output
channel
to the
range
where
channel
is between 1 and 6 inclusive, and
range
is set according to
Table B–
13
. The following example sets current output channel 4 to the 0-20 mA
range. This command responds with “feature not enabled” if the I/O
expansion board is not detected.
Send:
set analog iout range 4 1
Receive:
set analog iout range 4 1 ok

analog vin
channel
This command retrieves the analog voltage input
channel
data, both the
calculated value and the actual voltage. In the following example, the
“calculated” value of channel 1 is 75.325 degrees F, volts are 2.796. This
command responds with “feature not enabled” if the I/O expansion board
is not detected.
Send:
