:STATe? The STATe? query command is used to query, from an external
controller, the current execution state of the IBASIC program in the Test Set. The
return data (RUN, STOP, or PAUS) is sent as a series of ASCII characters.
The program execution states are defined as follows:
• RUN, the program is currently executing.
• PAUS, the program has reached a break in execution but can be continued.
• STOP, program execution has been terminated.
Syntax
PROGram[:SELected]:STATe?
Example
OUTPUT 714;"PROGram:SELected:STATe?"
ENTER 714;State$
or
OUTPUT 714;"PROG:STAT?"
ENTER 714;State$
