so that each Pointmaker CPN-5000 model can be operated from a remote device.

Note: The RS-232 commands listed here are a complete list for all products. Not

All other characters which follow this command require a combination of

Also, you will need to use a null modem cable.

Some places in the manual refer to entering a carriage return. This is usually
accomplished by hitting the Enter key on your keyboard.
