DUMP?
If statistics have been collected from the front panel, or by the COL or COL? commands, this command returns
all of the data values in the collection. If no statistics have been collected, it does nothing.

BAUD_<dec num>
If the <dec num> takes any of the values 300, 1200, 2400, 9600, or 19200; or any of their abbreviations 3, 12,
24, 96, 192, this command sets the RS232 baud rate to the corresponding value.

PARITY EVEN|ODD|NONE
Sets the parity of the RS232 interface to even parity, odd parity, or no parity, as specified.

HANDS XON|CTS|NONE
Sets the handshake method of the RS232 interface to XON/XOFF,CTS, or NONE as specified.

IO RS232|IEEE
On units with both IEEE and RS232 interfaces, this command makes the named interface the SAVED active
interface. The next time the instrument is powered up, or its configuration is restored from the configuration
save set active when this command was issued, the specified interface becomes the active remote interface.

*RST
This is the IEEE488.2 common command by the same name. When executed from the RS232 interface, it has
the effect of restoring the saved instrument configuration from the current save area. It has the additional
function in the IEEE488 interface of forcing the interface into the OCIS state and the OQIS state.

METER ON|OFF
Activates or deactivates the analog meter.
MODE VOLTS|ENERGY|AVGE|AVGP
If the specified mode is valid for the detector in use, the software changes mode to the one specified.

MODE?
Returns the instrument's operating mode. The possible responses are VOLTS, ENERGY, AVGE, and AVGP.

*TST?
This is the IEEE488.2 common query. From either interface, it causes ROM checksum, and non-destructive
RAM test to be run. If the tests succeed, this query returns zero. If the ROM test fails, a 1 is returned. If the
RAM test fails, a 2 is returned.

*OPC?
This is the IEEE488.2 common query. From either interface, it waits until no overlapping command is in
progress, and then it returns a 1.

*WAI
This is the IEEE488.2 common command. From either interface, it causes the command processor to wait
until any overlapping command is finished before continuing to process commands.

CLR
This command halts RPT?, SND?, or COL? commands in progress. It also terminates statistics gathering
started by the COL command. This command is issued internally whenever a carriage return that is not
preceded by a command is typed into the RS232 interface. When the IEEE488 interface receives a linefeed
terminated message with no commands, it too generates the CLR command.
