COMMAND REFERENCE 4 - 99
Query form: SYSTem:COMMunicate:SERial[:RECeive]:PACE?
SYSTem:COMMunicate:SERial:TRANsmit:PACE?
Response: XON | NONE
XON X-on/X-off handshake enabled.
NONE No X-on/X-off handshaking.
Query form: SYSTem:COMMunicate:SERial[:RECeive]:PARity[:TYPE]?
SYSTem:COMMunicate:SERial:TRANsmit:PARity[:TYPE]?
Response: EVEN | ODD | NONE
Description:
BAUD sets the baudrate of the EIA-232-D (RS-232-C) interface for both the
receive and transmit channel.
BITS sets the number of data bits of the EIA-232-D (RS-232-C) interface for both
the receive and transmit channel. Instead of 7, MINimum can be specified.
Instead of 8, MAXimum can be specified. The number of stop bits is always one.
If 7 data bits are specified and the parity type is NONE, an execution error is
reported.
PACE sets pacing (XON-XOFF) or no pacing at all (NONE) of the EIA-232-D
(RS 232-C) interface for both the receive and transmit channel.
PARity sets the parity type of the EIA-232-D (RS-232-C) interface for both the
receive and transmit channel. The parity type can be even (EVEN), odd (ODD),
or no parity at all (NONE). If the type of parity is NONE and the number of data
bits is 7, an execution error is reported.
After a
*
RST command, the interface settings remain unchanged.
Example:
Send
→ SYSTem:COMMunicate:SERial:BAUD 1200 Baudrate becomes
1200.
Send
→ SYSTem:COMMunicate:SERial:BITS 8 Number of data bits
becomes 8.
Send
→ SYSTem:COMMunicate:SERial:PACE XON XON becomes true.
Send
→ SYSTem:COMMunicate:SERial:PARity EVEN Parity type becomes
EVEN.
Front panel compliance:
The SYSTem:COMMunicate:SERial commands are the remote equivalent of the
front panel REMOTE SETUP - RS232 SETUP option of the UTILITY menu.
