2.12.2 RS-232C Connector
The AC source provides an RS-232C programming interface, which is activated by
commands located under the front panel Address key. The Address key commands
are explained in detail in section 4.10. When the RS-232C interface is selected, the
IEEE-488 interface is disabled.
The RS-232C data format is an 11-bit word. There is always one start bit and two
stop bits. You can specify one of the following parity options:
•
seven data bits with even parity
•
seven data bits with odd parity
•
eight data bits without parity
You can also specify one of the following baud rates:
300
600
1200
2400
4800
9600
Note: All SCPI commands are available through RS-232C programming.
Note: The SYSTem:LOCal, SYSTem:REMote, and SYSTem:RWLock
commands are only available through the RS-232C interface.
