DISP:MODE

DISP:MODE

Switches the display between its normal metering mode and a mode in which it displays text sent by the user. The command uses the character data <CRD> format.

Command Syntax

DISPlay[:WINDow]:MODE NORMalITEXT

Parameters

<CRD>

NORMal TEXT

*RST Value

NORM

 

 

Examples

DISP:MODE NORM

DISPLAY:MODE NORMAL

 

DISPLAY:WINDOW:MODE TEXT

Query Syntax

DISPlay[:WINDow]:MODE?

Returned Parameters

<CRD>

NORMAL or TEXT

DISP DISP:TEXT

*RST

DISP:TEXT

Allows character strings to be sent to display. The characters will be displayed when the display mode is TEXT. The LCD has the following character set:

 

LCD Character Set

uppercase letters

A through Z (Case-sensitive entry)

digits

0 through 9

punctuation

_ “ $ < > + - / = ? . : ,

blank space

 

A display is capable of showing up to 12 characters. However, the three punctuation characters do not count toward the 12- character limit when they are preceded by an alphanumeric character. When punctuation characters are included, then the maximum number of characters (alphanumeric + punctuation) that can be displayed is 15. If it exceeds the display capacity, a message will be truncated to fit and no error message will be generated. If any character in the message is not a member of the above character set, the character will not be rejected but will be displayed as a "starburst" (all 16 segments of the character will light).
