DIAGnostic:COMMunicate :SERial[0][:OWNer]?

:COMMunicate	DIAGnostic:COMMunicate:SERial[ 0] [ :OWNer] ? Returns the current "owner"
:SERial[0][:OWNer]?	of the built-in serial interface. The values returned will be; "SYST", "IBAS", or
	"NONE".
Comments	•	Related Commands: DIAGnostic:SERial[:OWNer]
Example Determine which instrument has the serial interface.
		DIAG:COMM:SER?	Note; :OWNer is implied
		enter statement	statement returns the string
			SYST, IBAS, or NONE
:COMMunicate DIAGnostic:COMMunicate:SERial[n]:STORe Stores the serial
:SERial[n]:STORe	communications parameters (e.g. BAUD, BITS, PARity etc.) into non-volatile
	storage for the serial interface specified by [n] in SERial[n].
Comments	•	Until … STORe is executed, communication parameter values are stored
		in volatile memory, and a power failure will cause the settings to be lost.
	•	DIAG:COMM:SER(1-7):STOR causes an Agilent E1324A (B-size
		RS-232 card) to store its settings in an on-board EEROM. This EEROM
		write cycle takes nearly one second to complete. Wait for this operation
		to complete before attempting to use that serial interface.
	• The Agilent E1324A’s EEROM used to store its serial communication
		settings has a finite lifetime of approximately ten thousand write cycles.
		Even if your application program sent the … STORe command once
		every day, the lifetime of the EEROM would still be over 27 years.
		Be careful that your application program sends the … STORe command
		to an Agilent E1324A no more often than is necessary.
