Section 4 Serial Controller

@
The system ID command @, followed by a CR and/or LF, is used to unlock the
Analyzer488 from an inappropriate command. When the @ command is received, the
serial port handshake line, Request To Send (RTS), is unasserted. It is asserted when
the Analyzer488 is capable of buffering commands. If XON/XOFF handshake is
selected, the software handshake state is not modified.
The @ character, referred to as the ID character, can be changed or disabled by
using the ID command. If it is anticipated that the ID character may be part of the
data
within an OUTPUT or SEND command, it should be changed or disabled.
Issuing the @ command clears the serial input buffer (pending commands) and
the serial output buffer (pending data). It is equivalent to issuing the following
commands:
DISARM
ERROR OFF
ID;@
MASK OFF
TIME OUT 10
This command does not have a query option.
