RS232 Remote Control Function Check
Invoke a terminal application such as Realterm.
For RS-232, set the COM port, baud rate, stop bit,
data bit and parity accordingly.
To check the COM settings in Windows, see the
Device Manager. For example, in Win7 go to the
Control panel ā System ā Hardware tab.
If you are not familiar with using a terminal
application to send/receive remote commands from
the serial port, please see page 179 for more
information.
Run this query command via the terminal after the
instrument has been configured for
RS-232 remote control (page 176).
