Remote operation
The ASM can be remotely controlled using a PC terminal, or by a
computer program running the calibrator in an automated system. It
uses an RS-232 serial port connection for remote operation. With this
connection the user can write programs on the PC, with Windows
languages like Visual Basic to operate the calibrator, or use a
Windows terminal, such as Hyper Terminal, to enter single
commands.
