Changing Between Remote and Local Operation
In addition to Local mode (front panel operation) and remote, the Calibrator can be
placed in a local lockout condition at any time by command of the controller.
Combined, the local, remote, and lockout conditions yield four possible operating
states described as follows.
Local State
The Calibrator responds to local and remote commands. This is normal front panel
operation. All remote commands are allowed to execute.
Local with Lockout State
Local with lockout is identical to local, except the Calibrator will go into the
remote with lockout state instead of the remote state when it receives a remote
command. You can only enter the Local with Lockout State by sending the IEEE-
488 GTL (Go to Local) message when the 525B is in remote with lockout.
Remote State
When the Calibrator is placed in remote, either via RS-232 REMOTE command,
or via IEEE-488 asserting the REN line, it enters the remote state. The top line of
the display changes to: REM.
