Initiate Instrument
The IEC-bus status registers and instrument settings of the instrument are brought to the default status.
REM ------------ Initiate instrument --------------------------------------
Public SUB InitDevice()
CALL IBWRT(receiver%, "*CLS") 'Reset status registers
CALL IBWRT(receiver%, "*RST") 'Reset instrument
END SUB

Switching the Display On/Off
In the default status, all remote control commands are executed with the display switched off to achieve
maximum measurement speed. During the generation of remote control programs, however, the display
is often needed to check the settings programmed as well as the test results.
The functions shown below are examples of how the display can be switched on or off by remote
control::
REM ------------ Switch display on --------------
Public SUB DisplayOn()
CALL IBWRT(receiver%, "SYST:DISP:UPD ON") 'Switch display on
END SUB
REM************************************************************************
REM ------------ Switch display off --------------
Public SUB DisplayOff()
CALL IBWRT(receiver%, "SYST:DISP:UPD OFF") 'Switch display off
END SUB
