1.2 Switching between Local and Remote
Switching from Local to Remote
When in Local mode, if a listen address is sent from the controller that sets REN (remote
enable) and ATN to “True,” the instrument enters Remote mode.
• When in Remote mode, the REMOTE indicator lights.
• Keys other than the LOCAL key are disabled.
• Settings entered in Local mode are held even if switching to Remote mode.
• When an LLO (Local Lock Out) message is received from the controller, the
instrument enters local lockout status. In LLO status, the LOCAL key is disabled and
does not return the instrument to Local mode even when pressed. After cancelling the
local lockout status, press the LOCAL key. To cancel the local lockout status, set REN
to “False” from the controller.
Switching from Remote to Local
If you press the LOCAL key when in Remote mode the instrument enters Local mode.
However, it does not return to Local mode if in the local lockout state.
• The REMOTE indicator turns off.
• All keys are enabled.
• Settings entered in Remote mode are held even if switching to Local mode.
• When a GTL (Go to Local) message is received from the controller, the instrument
enters Local mode even if REN is set to False.
