Real-Time System Clock
During a scan, the instrument stores all readings and alarms with
the current time and date. The instrument stores the time and date
information in non-volatile memory.
• When shipped from the factory, the instrument is set to the current
time and date (U.S. Mountain Time).
• Front-Panel Operation:
TIME 03:45 PM
JUN 01 1997
• Remote Interface Operation: Use the following commands to set the
time and date.
SYST:TIME 15,45,00 Set time to 3:45 PM
SYST:DATE 1997,06,01 Set date to June 1, 1997
Internal DMM Disable
You can scan through the configured channels using either the internal
DMM or an external instrument. For externally-controlled scans,
you must either remove the internal
DMM from the instrument or
disable it.
• For information on controlling a scan with an external instrument,
refer to “Scanning With External Instruments” on page 95.
• When shipped from the factory, the internal DMM is enabled.
When you change the state of the internal
DMM, the instrument
issues a Factory Reset (*RST command).
• A Factory Reset (*RST command) or Instrument Preset (SYSTem:PRESet
command) does not affect the internal
DMM configuration.
• Front-Panel Operation:
DMM ENABLED , DMM DISABLED
