Remote Operation 

 
USB INTERFACE CONNECTION 
 
NOTE: 

Ensure that sleep mode is disabled prior to remote operation. 

 
Prior to using the remote operation capability of the meter, the USB driver software must be installed on a computer. This 
software was supplied on the User’s Manual CD for the meter, however newer software may be available. Please visit the 
F.W. Bell web site, to download the latest software for the 5100 series meters, and follow the instructions on the web site for 
installation. 

 
REMOTE COMMAND STANDARDS 

 
Prior to 1987 most instruments that featured RS232 communications interfaces had their own unique commands for 
exchanging information. Eventually some manufacturers began offering models that recognized other manufacturer’s 
commands so that customers could easily switch over without making extensive changes to their programs. 
 
The IEEE-488-1987.2 standard (also called “IEEE-488.2”) was one step toward creating a universal way to communicate with 
any instrument, regardless of the manufacturer or the type of instrument used. This was later enhanced by the SCPI1991 
Standard (Software Commands for Programmable Instruments), which defined specific commands and responses that 
covered a broad range of applications. Though these standards were targeted for use with the IEEE488 instrumentation bus 
they are commonly used with serial (RS232) interfaces as well. 
 
The Model 5180 supports many of the IEEE-488-1987.2 “common” commands as well as a subset of the SCPI-1991 
commands. 

 
COMMAND FORMAT 
 

All commands consist of ASCII character strings. Some commands contain numeric parameters that are used to set or reset 
individual bits within binary registers. For instance a value of 45 decimal is the same as binary 101101, thus setting bits 5, 3, 2 
and 0 in the register and resetting all others. Sending the value “00101101” would be interpreted as the number 101,101. 

 
NOTE: 

No more than 500 characters can be sent in one command string.
