Operating Instructions
6.10. Operating the Analyzer from a Terminal or
Computer
The model 400E has imbedded in its software a variety of commands which allow
the user to turn various functions on and off, calibrate the instrument, manipulate
data files and perform other tasks from a remote terminal or computer via the
RS-232 COM ports.
Because dumb terminals and computers use different communication schemes, the
analyzer includes two communicate modes specifically designed to interface with
these two types of devices.
COMPUTER MODE: Used when the analyzer is being exercised from a computer a
dedicated interface program such as APIcom.
More information regarding APIcom can be found on in Section 6.10.7 or on T-API's
