SYSTem Subsystem

Remote Message

:SYSTem:MESSage <string>

Enables remote user to send message that will appear in the Status Bar at bottom of the instrument display. New message will overwrite any previous message. Message will remain until removed by use of :SYSTem:MESSage:OFF..

The SYSTem:KLOCk command will lock out the front panel keys.

Example:

:SYSTem:MESSage "Instrument currently in
