Switching between Remote and Local Modes
When Switching from Local to Remote Mode
The DL9000 switches to remote mode when it is in local mode and it receives a
:COMMunicate:REMote ON
command from the PC.
• “REMOTE” appears at the top center of the screen.
• All keys except the
CLEAR
key are disabled.
• Settings entered in local mode are retained even when the DL9000 switches to remote
mode.
When Switching from Remote to Local Mode
When the DL9000 is in remote mode and you press
CLEAR
, the DL9000 switches to
Local mode, unless it has received a
:COMMunicate:LOCKout ON
command from
the PC, in which case pressing
CLEAR
will have no effect. The DL9000 switches to
local mode when it receives a
:COMMunicate:REMote OFF
command from the PC,
regardless of the local lockout state.
• The “REMOTE” indicator at the top center of the screen disappears.
• Key operations are enabled.
• Settings entered in remote mode are retained even when the DL9000 switches to
local mode.
Note
The Ethernet/VXI-11 interface cannot be used simultaneously with another interface (USB or
GP-IB interface).
User Authentication Feature
You must enter a user name and password to access the DL9000 through the Ethernet
interface. If the SB Series Library (TMCTL) version is 1.40 or later, the password is
encrypted using the MD5 algorithm (RSA Data Security, Inc. MD5 Message-Digest
Algorithm) and then sent to the DL9000.
Set the user name and password in the Remote Control setup screen in the DL9000
SYSTEM menu. For instructions on how to set the user name and password, see section
2.4, “Setting the DL9000 (Network).”
If you select VXI-11 in the Device menu of the Remote Control setup screen (explained
later), the user authentication setup menu will not appear in the Remote Control setup
screen.
