LOCAL
In the System Controller mode, the LOCAL command without optional addresses
causes the Micro488/EX to un-assert the Remote Enable line. This causes devices on
the bus to return to manual operation. As the Active Controller, with bus addresses
specified, bus devices are placed in the local mode by the Go To Local (GTL) bus
command. If addresses are specified, the state of the Remote Enable line is not
affected.
