RS-232 Interface Configuration

See also "Remote Interface Configuration" on page 118 in chapter 3.
This section contains information to help you use the function generator
over the RS-232 interface. The programming commands for RS-232
operation are listed on the previous page.
RS-232 Configuration Overview
Configure the RS-232 interface using the parameters shown below.
Use the front-panel Utility–I/O menu to select the baud rate, parity,
number of data bits, and handshake mode (see page 45 for more
information on using the front-panel menus).
Baud Rate:
Parity / Data Bits:
Handshake Mode:
Number of Start Bits: 1 bit (fixed)
Number of Stop Bits: 1 bit (fixed)
To download binary data for arbitrary waveforms over the RS-232 interface,
you can use any handshake mode except XON/XOFF and be sure to
select Parity None (8 data bits). You must also insert a pause of
approximately 1 ms between sending the header and sending the
binary block.
