Agilent Technologies 8163B Programming Guide

Instrument Setup and Status Status Reporting – The STATus Subsystem
66 Agilent 8163A/B, 8164A/B & 8166A/B Mainframes, Fifth Edition
command:
:STATus:OPERation:ENABle[:LEVel0]
syntax: :STATus:OPERation:ENABle[:LEVel0]<wsp><value>
description: Sets the bits in the Operational Status Enable Summary Mask (OSESM) that enable the con-
tents of the OSESR to affect the Status Byte (STB).
Setting a bit in this register to 1 enables the corresponding bit in the OSESR to affect bit 7 of
the Status Byte.
parameters: The bit value for the OSESM as a 16-bit signed integer value (0 .. +32767)
The default value is 0.
response: none
example: stat:oper:enab 128
command:
:STATus:OPERation:ENABle[:LEVel0]?
syntax: :STATus:OPERation:ENABle[:LEVel0]?
description: Returns the OSESM for the OSESR
parameters: none
response: The bit value for the operation enable mask as a 16-bit signed integer value (0 .. +32767)
example: stat:oper:enab? → +128<END>
command:
:STATus:OPERation[:EVENt]:LEVel1?
syntax: :STATus:OPERation[:EVENt]:LEVel1?
description: Returns the Operational Status Event Summary Register (OSESR) for slots 15 to 17 of the
Agilent 8166A/B Lightwave Multichannel System.
parameters: none
response: The sum of the results for the slots (a 16-bit signed integer value, where 0 ≤ value ≤ 32767):
