I am looking for the complete set of codes that are sent to a Racal
RA6790/GM receiver via its stock GPIB (IEEE-488, HPIB) port. $02F12.12345
changes the frequency of number 2 receiver (set with dip switch next to the
GPIB socket on the receiver) to 12.12345 MHz.

The manual found on the Internet discusses the use of a serial port.

Google pointed to a site where a 232 to 488 converter was used to
control an earlier model of receiver that contains a GPIB module. Some of
those codes do work with the RA6790/GM.

Pointers to the information will be appreciated.
