reset function
This function is used to return all logical instruments to the default settings.
Function Resets the logical instruments to the default settings.
Usage reset()
Remarks • This function resets all logical instruments in the system. This function is equivalent
to iterating over all the logical instruments in the system and calling the reset method
of each.

serial functions and attributes
The functions and attributes in this group are used to configure the RS-232 Interface:
reset
serial.baud
Attribute Baud rate for the RS-232 port.
Usage baud = serial.baud -- Reads baud rate.
serial.baud = baud -- Writes baud rate.
baud Set to 300, 600, 1200, 2400, 4800, 9600,
19200 38400, 57600 or 115200.
Remarks • A new baud rate setting takes effect when the command to change it is processed.
• The user should allow ample time for the command to be processed before attempting to
communicate with the instrument again. It is recommended that the baud rate be set from
the GPIB interface or from the front panel.
• The baud rate is stored in non-volatile memory. The reset function has no effect on the
baud rate.
Details See “RS-232 interface operation” in Section 11.
Also see serial.databits, serial.flowcontrol, serial.parity
Example Sets the baud rate to 1200:
serial.baud = 1200
