4.1. Introduction
If your unit is fitted with a computer interface option then a GPIB, RS232, USB or LAN socket
will be present on the rear panel according to what was ordered. The interface allows the load
settings to be configured remotely and measurements read back.
There are two sets of programming terms for the 3302F. One is referred to as the SIMPLE
format and the other is COMPLEX format.
