6.1.2 Switchover to Remote Control
On power-up, the instrument is always in the manual operating state and can be
operated via the front panel controls (for instruments equipped with a display –
R&S OSP130), a connected keyboard or via the Graphical User Interface (GUI)
displayed on an external monitor. The instrument is switched to remote control as soon
as it receives a command from the controller.
6.1.3 Return to Manual Operation
Return to manual operation can be initiated via the front panel or via remote control.
● Manually: Click a front panel key, and select the desired action.
● Via VXI-11 protocol: >L interface message
6.2 Messages
The messages transferred between the controller and the R&S OSP can be either
interface messages or Device Messages (Commands and Device Responses).
Chapter 6.2.3, SCPI Command Structure and Syntax, describes the structure of the
device messages as defined by the SCPI standard.
6.2.1 VXI-11 Interface Messages
The VXI-11 protocol allows the instrument to be controlled in a Local Area Network.
For a short introduction and a list of interface functions refer to the VXI-11 Protocol
Specification document.
