15-4 Status Structure 2400 Series SourceMeter

User’s Manual

Clearing registers and queues

When the SourceMeter 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 15-1. 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.
