Overview of Remote Control
Sending SCPI command messages
Message including several commands
When sending two or more commands in a single message, separate each
command with a semicolon (;). The following example shows how to send the
*CLS command and the :STAT:PRES command in a single message using
HTBasic.

Remote mode
The E4980A/AL enters remote mode when controlled with commands from the
controller and RMT is displayed in the status display area in the lower right of
the screen.
Press [Local/Lock] to cancel the remote mode.
When the E4980A/AL enters a local lockout state by sending the LOCAL
LOCK BUS command from the controller, you cannot unlock the remote
mode even if you press [Local/Lock]. (Only RMT is displayed in the status
display area, so you cannot distinguish the local lockout state from a
normal remote mode.)
Send the LOCAL BUS command from the controller to cancel this state,
which enables control of the E4980A/AL on the front panel.
