3.4 INTERFACE AND MISCELLANEOUS FUNCTIONS
The following front panel keyboard functions relate to Model 330 thermometry or temperature control: Baud
(Paragraph 3.4.1), Address (Paragraph 3.4.2), Local (Paragraph 3.4.3), Defaults/Reset (Paragraph 3.4.4), and
Power Up Configuration (PUP, Paragraph 3.4.5).
3.4.1 Baud
If using the Serial Interface, set the Baud rate to 300 or 1200 (300 is the default). Press and hold the
Baud
key
to show the current Baud rate in the lower Control window. To change the Baud rate, hold the
Baud
key and
press the
t
key to cycle the Baud rate between 300 and 1200. Other Serial Interface parameters are fixed
(see Table 4-2).
3.4.2 Address
Views and sets the IEEE-488 address and terminator. To view the IEEE-488 address, press and hold the
Address
key. The number for the selected address appears in the upper Sample window. The default
address is 12. To change the IEEE-488 address, hold the
Address
key and press the
s
key to cycle through
the addresses. Release when you reach the desired address.
To view the IEEE-488 communication terminators, press the
Address
key. The symbol for the terminators
appears in the lower Control window. The four terminators are:
CrLf
Carriage Return, Line Feed
LfCr
Line Feed, Carriage Return
Lf
Line
Feed
End
No Terminator (EOI line set with last data byte if active)
To change the IEEE-488 terminators, hold the
Address
key and press the
t
key to cycle through the
terminators. Release when you reach the desired terminator. Change all other IEEE-488 interface parameters
with computer interface commands described in Chapter 4.
3.4.3 Local
Toggles the instrument between Remote (computer controlled) operating mode and Local (front panel
controlled) operating mode. This can be locked out by the IEEE-488 interface (see Paragraph 4.1).
Local Mode is the normal operating mode. Front panel control is fully active. Operating in Local Mode does not
disable interface activity. In Remote Mode, the controller is under remote interface control and the front panel
keys are disabled.
3.4.4
