9.7 EIA-232 Connection
An EIA-232 interface is provided for the short-distance connection with a controller or
computer.
A point-to-point connection is established with a control device.
For this interface, three operating modes are available:
Operating mode, bit rate, parity and number of stop bits are set in the set-up menu.
The rate can be set within 1200 and 38400 bit/s. The character parity for this
interface can be selected to EVEN, ODD or NONE. The number of data bits is set to
8 and cannot be modified.

9.7.1 Operating Mode SCPI

In this operating mode SCPI commands are evaluated and replied depending on the
command type. The IGM11 will only reply on request. The command line must be
terminated with the character <LF>. The reply is terminated with the characters
<CR><LF>. The data set length must not exceed 80 characters. The single SCPI
commands are described separately.
SCPI The data transfer is carried out via normal SCPI commands. Normal
protocol for the connection to a personal computer.
SHORT The data transfer is carried out via a compact, limited protocol.
Especially suitable to connect to a PLC.
FLOW A measured value is transmitted every 100ms.
