11-4 Status Structure Model 2750 Multimeter/Switch System User’s Manual
Clearing registers and queues
When the Model 2750 is turned on, the bits of all registers in the status structure are
cleared (reset to 0), and the two queues are empty. Commands to reset the event and event
enable registers, and the Error Queue are listed in Table 11-1. In addition to these com-
mands, any enable register can be reset by sending the 0 parameter value with the individ-
ual command to program the register.
NOTE SYSTem:PRESet and *RST have no effect on status structure registers and
queues.
