Description
The commands in this subsystem are used to control the display of the Model
2000 and are summarized in Table 5-3.
<b> = 0 or OFF
1 or ON
:ENABle? Query state of display
This command is used to enable and disable the front panel display circuitry.
When disabled, the instrument operates at a higher speed. While disabled,
the display is frozen.
All front panel controls (except LOCAL) are disabled. Normal display op-
eration can be resumed by using the :ENABle command to enable the display
or by putting the Model 2000 into local mode (press LOCAL).
<a> = ASCII characters for message (maximum of 12 characters). The char-
acters must be enclosed in either double quotes (" ") or single quotes
(' ').
:DATA? Query the defined text message.
These commands define the text message for display. A message can be as
long as 12 characters. A space counts as a character. Excess message char-
acters results in an error.
