Unless otherwise stated, all of the following commands are SCPI-confirmed. Note that
*RST does not influence the status registers (see also Reset Values of the Status Report-
ing System).
The available commands are listed below.
STATus:QUEStionable:CONDition...................................................................................239
STATus:QUEStionable:ENABle.......................................................................................239
STATus:QUEStionable[:EVENt].......................................................................................240
STATus:QUEStionable:NTRansition................................................................................240
STATus:QUEStionable:PTRansition.................................................................................240
STATus:QUEStionable:BIT<n>:CONDition.......................................................................240
STATus:QUEStionable:BIT<n>[:EVENt]...........................................................................240
STATus:QUEStionable:BIT<n>:ENABle...........................................................................241
STATus:QUEStionable:BIT<n>:NTRansition.....................................................................241
STATus:QUEStionable:BIT<n>:PTRansition.....................................................................241
STATus:QUEStionable:CONDition?
Returns the contents of the CONDition part of the status register. Reading the CONDition
registers is nondestructive. See also Structure of an SCPI Status Register.
Return values:
<ConditionBits> Range: 0 to 65535 (decimal representation)
Example:
STAT:QUES:COND?
Query the CONDition part of the QUEStionable register to check
for questionable instrument states.
Usage: Query only
Firmware/Software: V1.0.0.4
STATus:QUEStionable:ENABle <MaskBits>
Sets the enable mask which allows true conditions in the EVENt part of the status register
to be reported in the summary bit. If a bit is 1 in the enable register and its associated
event bit transitions to true, a positive transition will occur in the summary bit reported to
the next higher level. See also Structure of an SCPI Status Register.
Parameters:
<MaskBits> Range: 0 to 65535 (decimal representation)
Example:
STAT:QUES:ENAB 1536
Set bits no. 9 and 10 of the QUEStionable:ENABle register (1536
= 512 + 1024 = 2
9
+ 2
10
).
Firmware/Software: V1.0.0.4
