Reset
*RST
This command presets the instrument to a factory defined
condition that is appropriate for remote programming
operation. *RST is equivalent to performing the two
commands :SYSTem:PRESet and *CLS. This command
always performs a factory preset.
Key access: Preset
Service Request Enable
*SRE <integer>
*SRE?
This command enables the desired bits of the service request
enable register.
The query returns the value of the register, indicating which
bits are currently enabled. The default value is 255.
Example: *SRE 16
enables bits 4 in the service request enable register.
Range: Integer, 0 to 255
Status Byte Query
*STB?
Returns the value of the status byte register without erasing
its contents.
Range: Integer, 0 to 255
Example: If a 16 is returned, it indicates that bit 5 is set and one of
the conditions monitored in the standard event status
register is set.
NOTE
The preset performed by *RST is always a factory preset. That is, the
same preset performed by
:SYSTem:PRESet when :SYS-
Tem:PRESet:TYPE
is set to DFT
