The following general status commands preset the status registers and query the error
queue.
STATus:PRESet............................................................................................................220

STATus:PRESet
Configures the status reporting system such that device-dependent events are not repor-
ted at a higher level.
The command affects only the transition filter registers, the ENABle registers, and queue
enabling:
●
The ENABle parts of the STATus:OPERation and STATus:QUEStionable... registers
are set to all 0's.
●
The PTRansition parts are set all 1's, the NTRansition parts are set to all 0's, so that
only positive transitions in the CONDition part are recognized.
The status reporting system is also affected by other commands, see Reset Values of
the Status Reporting System.
Example:
STAT:PRES
Preset the status registers.
Usage: Setting only
Firmware/Software: V1.0.0.4
STATus:QUEue[:NEXT]?
Queries and at the same time deletes the oldest entry in the error queue. Operation is
identical to that of SYSTem:ERRor[:NEXT].
The entry consists of an error number and a short description of the error. Positive error
numbers are instrument-dependent. Negative error numbers are reserved by the SCPI
standard.
Example:
STAT:QUE?
Query the oldest entry in the error queue. 0, "No error" is returned
if the error queue is empty.
Usage: Query only
