Status structure
See Figure 4-5 for the Model 2010 Multimeter’s status structure. Instrument events, such as
errors, are monitored and manipulated by four status register sets. Notice that these status
register sets feed directly into the Status Byte Register. More detailed illustrations of these
register sets are provided in Figure 4-5 through Figure 4-9.
