Methods of Initialization
There are six methods of initializing the Test Set:
1. Power On Reset
2. Front panel PRESET key
3. *RST IEEE 488.2 Common Command
4. Device Clear (DCL) HP-IB Bus Command
5. Selected Device Clear (SDC) HP-IB Bus Command
6. Interface Clear (IFC) HP-IB Bus Command
When the Test Set is initialized some fields are “restored” (put back to
their default state), some fields are “maintained” (kept at their current
state or value), and some fields are “initialized” (returned to their
default value).
The following sections discuss the effects each of the six initialization
methods has on the Test Set.
