Communication Interface Commands

The communication interface commands are used for querying and setting serial port and

IR configuration parameters.

SYSTem:COMMunicate:IR:MODE?

Returns the IR mode setting.
Example: SYST:COMM:IR:MODE?
Response: 0
A value of 0 is returned if the IR mode is off (IR port is disabled). A value of 1 is

returned if the IR mode is in communications mode (COMM). A value of 2 is returned if

the IR port is in IRDA mode (IRDA).

SYSTem:COMMunicate:IR:MODE <num>

Sets the IR mode setting.
Example: SYST:COMM:IR:MODE 1
The <num> parameter specifies the IR mode setting. A value of 0 turns IR mode off (IR

port is disabled). A value of 1 sets the IR mode to communications mode (COMM). A

value of 2 sets the IR mode to IRDA mode (IRDA).

SYSTem:COMMunicate:SERial:BAUD? [MIN|MAX|DEF]

Returns the serial port baud rate setting.
Example: SYST:COMM:SER:BAUD?
Response: 2400
Specifying the MIN, MAX, or DEF parameter returns the minimum, maximum, or

default value respectively.

SYSTem:COMMunicate:SERial:BAUD <baud>|MIN|MAX|DEF

Sets the serial port baud rate setting.
Example: SYST:COMM:SER:BAUD 9600
The <baud> parameter can be one of the following values: 1200, 2400, 4800, 9600,

19200, 38400, or 57600. Specifying the MIN, MAX or DEF parameter sets the baud rate

to the minimum, maximum, or default value respectively. A baud rade of 57600 suspends

echo (full duplex).

SYSTem:COMMunicate:SERial:FDUPlex?

Returns the state of the serial port echo (duplex) setting.
Example: SYST:COMM:SER:FDUP?
Response: 1
