Configuration for Terminal or PC Operation
It is preferable to enter long strings of characters into fields using a terminal. The
characteristics of the serial port, when used for instrument control from a terminal
or terminal emulator, are determined by settings on the test set’s I/O
CONFIGURE screen.
Set the following:
• Serial In to Inst
• IBASIC Echo to On
• Inst Echo to On
Set the remaining configuration entries to match the settings of your terminal or
PC program.
