Status Byte Register & Service Request Enable Register
Overview
The Status Byte register consolidates the status
events of all the status registers. The Status Byte
register can be read with the *STB? query or a
serial poll and can be cleared with the *CLS
command. When a serial poll is executed the
RQS bit generates a service request. A serial
poll will not clear any of the Status byte
registers.
An *STB query will ready the status byte
register with the MSS bit, not the RQS bit.
