Using the Status Register
The status of the E5071C can be detected through the status registers.
This section explains how to detect the end of measurement by using the
status registers.
Measurement status is reported by the operation status condition register.
An SRQ (service request) is useful when creating a program that uses the
information reported by this register to detect the end of measurement.
To detect the end of measurement via an SRQ, use one of the following
commands:
• *SRE
• :STAT:OPER:ENAB
• :STAT:OPER:PTR
• :STAT:OPER:NTR
Follow these steps to utilize an SRQ:
1. Configure the E5071C so that it generates an SRQ when the
operation status condition register's bit 4 (a bit that is set to 1 during
measurement) is changed from 1 to 0.
2. Trigger the instrument to start a measurement cycle.
3. When an SRQ is generated, the program interrupts the measurement
cycle.
