Operating from Remote
This section shows you the fundamentals of operating the multimeter from
remote. This includes reading and changing the GPIB address, sending a
command to the multimeter, and retrieving data from the multimeter.
Input/Output statements
The statements used to operate the multimeter from remote depend on the
computer and its language. In particular, you need to know the statements the
computer uses to input and output information. For example, the input
statements for the Hewlett-Packard Series 200/300 BASIC language are:
ENTER
The output statement is:
OUTPUT
Read your computer manuals to find out which statements you need to use. The
examples in this manual use Hewlett-Packard Series 200/300 BASIC language.
Reading the GPIB address
Before you can operate the multimeter from remote, you need to know its GPIB
address (factory setting = 22). To check the address, press:
A typical display is:
The displayed response is the device address. When sending a remote command,
you append this address to the GPIB interface's select code (normally 7). For
example, if the select code is 7 and the device address is 22, the combination is
722.
