When you set access to full, the instrument accepts commands from any interface with no passwords
required. You can change interfaces as needed.
When you set access to exclusive, you must log out of one remote interface and log into another one
to change interfaces. To use another interface, log out of the present interface before logging into the
new interface. You do not need a password with this access.
Protected access is similar to exclusive access, except that you must enter a password when logging
in.
When you set access to locked out, a password is required to change interfaces, including the front-
panel interface.
