Digital Communications Interface 6
Commands
UNIT:TEMPerature <unit>
Sets the system temperature unit. Example: UNIT:TEMP C
The <unit> parameter must be either C or CEL for Celsius or F or FAR for Fahrenheit. The *RST command sets the temperature unit to Celsius.
Communication Interface Commands
The communication interface commands are used for querying and setting serial port and IR configuration parameters.
SYSTem:COMMunicate:IR:MODE?
Returns the IR mode setting. Example: SYST:COMM:IR:MODE? Response: 0
A value of 0 is returned if the IR mode is off (IR port is disabled). A value of 1 is returned if the IR mode is in communications mode (COMM). A value of 2 is returned if the IR port is in IRDA mode (IRDA).
SYSTem:COMMunicate:IR:MODE <num>
Sets the IR mode setting.
Example: SYST:COMM:IR:MODE 1
The <num> parameter specifies the IR mode setting. A value of 0 turns IR mode off (IR port is disabled). A value of 1 sets the IR mode to communications mode (COMM). A value of 2 sets the IR mode to IRDA mode (IRDA).
SYSTem:COMMunicate:SERial:BAUD? [MINMAXDEF]
Returns the serial port baud rate setting. Example: SYST:COMM:SER:BAUD? Response: 2400
Specifying the MIN, MAX, or DEF parameter returns the minimum, maximum, or default value respectively.
SYSTem:COMMunicate:SERial:BAUD <baud>MINMAXDEF
Sets the serial port baud rate setting. Example: SYST:COMM:SER:BAUD 9600
The <baud> parameter can be one of the following values: 1200, 2400, 4800, 9600, 19200, 38400, or 57600. Specifying the MIN, MAX or DEF parameter sets the baud rate to the minimum, maximum, or default value respectively. A baud rade of 57600 suspends echo (full duplex).
SYSTem:COMMunicate:SERial:FDUPlex?
Returns the state of the serial port echo (duplex) setting.
Example: SYST:COMM:SER:FDUP?
Response: 1
