GPIB-VXI/C User Manual

CONF

Purpose

Reboot into nonvolatile configuration mode.

Command Syntax

CONF

Example

Reboot into nonvolatile configuration mode.

CONF

ConsoleEna

Purpose

Enable or disable the RS-232 port as the console.

Command Syntax

ConsoleEna <Boolean>

Action

If 

<Boolean>

 is TRUE, 

ConsoleEna

 sets the RS-232 port to be a local command set input.

If 

<Boolean>

 is FALSE, 

ConsoleEna

 disables the RS-232 port connection to the local 

command set. Notice that once the console has been disabled, it must be re-enabled from 
a command source other than the RS-232 port (such as the GPIB port).

Examples

Disable console.

ConsoleEna 0

Enable console.

ConsoleEna 1
