STATus Subsystem (Remote Only Commands)
Operation Positive Transition This command determines which bits in the Operation
Condition register will set the corresponding bit in the Operation Event register when the
condition register bit has a positive transition (0 to 1). The variable <integer> is the sum of
the decimal values of the bits that you want to enable.
Preset the Status Byte
Sets bits in most of the enable and transition registers to their default state. It presets all
the Transition Filters, Enable Registers, and the Error/Event Queue Enable. It has no
effect on Event Registers, Error/Event QUEue, IEEE 488.2 ESE, and SRE Registers as
described in IEEE Standard 488.2–1992, IEEE Standard Codes, Formats, Protocols and
Common Commands for Use with ANSI/IEEE Std 488.1–1987. New York, NY, 1992.
Questionable Register
Questionable Condition This query returns the decimal value of the sum of the bits in the
Questionable Condition register.
The data in this register is continuously updated and reflects the current conditions.
