zero. To save the current instrument state, the user issues the *SAV 0 command. To restore the saved state,
the user may issue either the *RST or the *RCL 0 commands). The *LRN? query is not supported.

(20) The self test instigated by the *TST? query checks the ROM checksum against the contents of ROM,
and it does a non-destructive RAM test.

21) There are no status structures beyond those required by Std IEEE488.2.

22) There is only one overlapped command. That is the statistics gathering command COL.

23) When the operation complete message is generated after a COL command, all of the requested data
points have been collected, and the mean, max, sigma, and coefficient of variation have been computed.
There are no other overlapped commands, so the setting of operation complete in any other context simply
means that no command was in progress when the *OPC command was issued.


IEEE488 SETUP

The only setup necessary for the IEEE interface is the setting of its bus address. This is done from the front
panel through a series of menu choices, followed by the entry of the numeric address (a number between 0
and 30). The sequence of menu choices depends upon the type of instrument, and is described below:

Step 1) Obtaining the IEEE address setup screen

Proceed as described in FRONT PANEL REMOTE INTERFACE SELECTION until you have selected the
IEEE488 interface. The carry out step 2 below.

Step 2) Entering the IEEE bus address

You will be presented with a screen that is blank except for the number which denotes the IEEE bus address.
Use the Count Up and Count Down Keys to adjust that address. (Only numbers 0 through 30 are allowed.)
When the desired address is present, press the SELECT key. The new bus address becomes effective
immediately. To make the setting permanent, press the SAVE button.


IEEE488 REMOTE CONFIGURATION

The IEEE488 interface may not be configured remotely. The only way to set the address is to use the front
panel configuration described on the previous page.


REMOTE INTERFACE LANGUAGE

The Remote Interface Language is compatible with Std-IEEE488.2 and also works with the RS232 remote
interface.
