Status Reporting
This section describes the status reporting structure used in the Test Set. The
structure is based on the IEEE 488.1-1987 and 488.2-1987 Standards and the
Standard Commands for Programmable Instruments (SCPI) Version 1994.0.
For a full listing of command mnemonics, refer to the “Status” syntax, in HP-IB
Command Syntax chapter of the HP 8924C Condensed Programming Reference
Guide.
Status Register Structure Overview
The structure of the register groups used in the Test Set is based upon the status
data structures outlined in the IEEE 488 and SCPI 1994.0 Standards. There are
two types of status data structures used in the Test Set: status registers and status
queues. The general models, components, and operation of each type of status
data structure are explained in the following sections.
