Chapter 4, Status Reporting
Status Reporting
a. Although a Condition register is implemented, the Test Set will not parse out or execute HP-IB com-
mands while this operation is taking place. Consequently, a query of the Condition register will not be
executed until after the calibration attempt has completed, and will never indicate a “true” condition.
Always query the Event register, and when the calibration attempt has completed an Event register query
result will be returned and will show which bit was latched by the initiation of a calibration attempt.
