*CLS
Description
This command (no query form) clears the following:
H Event Queue
H Standard Event Status Register
H Status Byte Register (except the MAV bit)
If the *CLS command immediately follows an <EOI>, the Output
Queue and MAV bit (Status Byte Register bit 4) are also cleared. MAV
indicates that information is in the output queue. The device clear
(DCL) GPIB control message will clear the output queue and thus
MAV. *CLS does not clear the output queue or MAV.
*CLS can suppress a Service Request that is to be generated by an
*OPC. This will happen if a single sequence acquisition operation is
still being processed when the *CLS command is executed.
