9.3 Changing Between Remote and Local Operation
There are three modes of operation of the calibrator, Local, Remote,
and Remote with Lockout. Local mode is the default mode.
Commands may be entered using the keypad on the calibrator or
using a computer. In Remote mode the keypad is disabled, and
commands may only be entered using a computer, but choosing
[GO TO LOCAL] from the menu on the calibrator display will restore
keypad operation. In Remote with Lockout, the keypad can not be
used at all. To switch modes proceed as follows:
1. To enable Remote mode, type in the serial command REMOTE
at the computer terminal.
2. To enable Remote with Lockout, type in “REMOTE LOCKOUT” in
either order.
3. To switch back to local operation enter LOCAL at the terminal.
This command also turns off LOCKOUT if it was on. For more
information on commands refer to the Remote Commands
section.
