Baud Rate Selection (RS-232)
You can select one of six baud rates for RS-232 operation. The rate is set
to 9600 baud when the function generator is shipped from the factory.
The baud rate can be set from the front-panel only.
Select one of the following: 300, 600, 1200, 2400, 4800, or 9600 baud.
The factory setting is 9600 baud.
The baud rate selection is stored in non-volatile memory, and does not
change when power has been off or after a remote interface reset.
Front-Panel Operation:
3: BAUD RATE (I/O MENU)
See also “To set the baud rate,” on page 219.
Parity Selection (RS-232)
You can select the parity for RS-232 operation. The function generator
is configured for no parity and 8 data bits when shipped from the factory.
The parity can be set from the front-panel only.
Select one of the following: None (8 data bits), Even (7 data bits),
or Odd (7 data bits). When you set the parity, you are indirectly
setting the number of data bits.
The parity selection is stored in non-volatile memory, and does not
change when power has been off or after a remote interface reset.
To download binary data for arbitrary waveforms over the RS-232
interface, you must select 8 data bits with no parity.
Front-Panel Operation:
4: PARITY (I/O MENU)
See also “To set the parity,” on page 220.
