STATus Subsystem
STATus:OPERation:[EVENT]?
Returns a decimal value corresponding to the binary-weighted sum of the bits in the event register of
the Operation Status group. This read-only register stores (latches) all events that are passed by the
Operation NTR and/or PTR filter.
– Reading the Operation Status Event register clears it.
– *RST has no effect on this register.
STATus:OPERation:CONDition?
Returns a decimal value corresponding to the binary-weighted sum of the bits in the condition register
of the Operation Status group. This read-only register holds the live (unlatched) operational status of
the instrument.
– Reading the Operation Status Condition register does not clear it.
– *RST clears this register, other than those bits where the condition still exists after *RST.
STATus:OPERation:ENABle <value>
Sets the value of the enable register for the Operation Status group. The enable register is a mask for
enabling specific bits from the Operation Event register to set the OPER (operation summary) bit of the
Status Byte register.
– STATus:PRESet clears all bits in the enable register.
– *CLS does not clear the enable register, but does clear the event register .
STATus:PRESet
Sets the all registers to their power-on values.
STATus:QUEStionable:CONDition?
Returns a decimal value corresponding to the binary-weighted sum of the bits in the Questionable
Status condition register.
– This register is a read-only register, which holds the instrument's live (unlatched) operational status.
– Reading the Questionable Status Condition register does not clear it.
– *RST clears this register, other than those bits where the condition still exists after *RST
