"GF<cr>"
7. Turn the 3D or 3E degas OFF. This command stops the degas function if it is
active. This does not inhibit setting up degas via the front panel. This and the
broadcast "Q" command are the only ways that the degas can be halted, if it
was started by the "GN<cr>" command. Of course any thing that turns the
filament off will also turn off degas, including power down. If the filament is
restarted, the degas will not automatically be restarted.
"GN<cr>"
8. Turn the 3D or 3E degas ON. This command turns the 3D or 3E degas on for
an indefinite period of time. To shut degas off, the "GF" command or the
broadcast command "Q" must be used. The filament must be on for this
command to take effect. Shutting the filament off by any means will also shut
off degas (see "GF" command).
"GNxxx<cr>"
9. Turn the degas on for a specified period of time. This will turn on the degas
for "xxx" minutes, where "xxx" is anywhere from 001 to 255. Three digits
must be sent including lead zeros, if any. The front panel will flash the de-gas
time the same as if it were set from the front panel, except that while the de-
gas time is over 99 minutes, the display will flash "dG--".
"E2<cr>"
10. Observe the 24 volt enable input for filament operation. After this
command has been issued, the filament of either, a 3D or 3E will
not communications board.
"C2<cr>"
11. Cancel use of the 24-volt enable signal for filament operation. This cancels
the "E2" command. These two commands can be stored to be in effect at
power up.
"RS<cr>"
12. Read switch position. Response "0" thru "7".
"SWx<cr>"
13. Logically set the rear panel 3D or 3E tube type selector switch. This makes
the modular unit respond as if the rear panel switch were set to "x". (Of
course, the switch physically remains as it was). The results of this test
cannot be stored.
LEAK RATE
"ED<cr>"
1. End Leak Rate data output. This command halts the output of leak rate data
to the communications interface, but does not stop the leak rate test. It can
be used when it is desired to momentarily interrupt the data flow, without
interrupting the test itself, so that other commands could be exercised. The
front panel continues to display the leak rate test results. The response to
this command is "A<cr>".
