5.4.2 Remote Commands
Remote commands allow the meter to be interfaced with
computer software like LIMs and HyperTerminal.
The remote engine receives input from the serial port and
processes it. Commands sent to the remote interface will
be in the form of "OPCODE <OPERAND> CR".
• Only one command can be executed at a time. A
new command cannot be issued until the previous
command is done and prompt is given, shown as
the greater than symbol (">") followed by a space.
• Empty commands (i.e. just a <CR>) will be ignored
and a new prompt will be issued.
• <CR> (Carriage Return, ASCII 13) is used to
terminate a command. Whenever this character is
received, the internal buffer will be processed.
• Remote commands are not case sensitive.
