54 Operating and Programming Manual
If the ―:‖ in front of DIAG is omitted, the instrument assumes that you‘ve sent
SYST:DIAG:CONT:RESET and will generate an error.
*RST Reset Response
The 5071A reset response (Initialization state) is the configuration acquired at
program reset. Table 4-2 summarizes this state. Once a configuration has been
saved, it will persist even if power is removed or until it is reprogrammed (via
SCPI commands or through the front-panel menus).
Table 4-2. *RST Reset Conditions
The IEEE 488.2 *RST command returns the instrument to a specified state
optimized for remote operation. Use *CLS to clear the status registers and the
SCPI error queue.
