READYCKn
Purpose
Read or set the
Ready
check flag.
Command
Query
“READYCK
n
1”
“READYCK
n
?”
Classic “READYCK
n
=1”
“READYCK
n
”
Optional Suffix
“n”
A suffix may be used instead of “
RptLabel
”
‘1’ Specify the Hi Q-RPT
‘2’ Specify the Lo Q-RPT
Remarks
The internal ready check flag is cleared whenever the specified or active Q-RPT reaches a
Not Ready
(NR) condition. The “READYCK” query returns the status of the flag. The flag is
set by sending the “READYCK 1” program message while the Q-RPT is in a
Ready
condition.
The “READYCK” program message query can then be used at a later time to determine
whether a
Not Ready
condition has occurred since the ready check flag was set.

REMOTE
Purpose
Lock out the front panel keypads during remote operation.
Command “REMOTE”
Classic “REMOTE”
Remarks
The RPM4-E-DWT goes into remote mode whenever communications take place. The user
can return to local operation by pressing the [ESC] key. The REMOTE program message
locks out the front panel completely. The only way to unlock the front panel after the
“REMOTE” command is using the “LOCAL” program message, the IEEE-488 “GTL”
command, or by cycling the RPM4-E-DWT power.
