Instrument Control
Keys
Resets only the selected instrument (equivalent of executing *RST). RST_INST
also clears the instrument’s terminal interface and remote input and output
buffers. RST_INST is the only terminal interface key that can affect an
instrument being operated from remote.
Clears the terminal interface input and output buffers (remote buffers are not
cleared) of the selected instrument and returns to the top level of the instrument
menu. Press CLR_INST whenever an instrument is busy, is not responding to
terminal interface control, or to abort a command being entered from the
terminal interface.
Other Keys
End of line. Enters your responses to menu prompts. Executes commands
entered from the terminal keyboard (may be labeled Enter on your terminal
emulator).
Selects alternate key definitions. These CTRL key sequences provide short-cuts
to some of the menu sequences and also provide some functions not directly
available from dedicated terminal keys. Some alternate key definitions are:
CTRL R = Instrument Reset
CTRL C = Clear Instrument
CTRL D = Select an instrument menu.
For a complete list of all CTRL Sequences, see Table 3-3 in this chapter. Users
of the optional IBASIC interpreter should refer to their IBASIC manual set for
additional editing functions.
