100<cr><lf>
Echo Disabled: 100<cr><lf>
Communication Protocol
Communication parameters are set at 9600 baud, 8 bits, parity = none, and 1 stop bit.
To help establish RS232 communications, the pulse generator emits the characters
BNC approximately every 200 ms after power up and until the 9700 receives a $.
Both the GPIB and the RS232 interface may be used at the same time. The
instrument will respond to the port which sent the command.
