STATus Subsystem Introduction
Parameter
Typical Return
(none)
+32
Read the condition register (bit 5 is set):
STAT:OPER:COND?
l
The condition register bits reflect the current condition. If a condition goes away, the corresponding bit is cleared .
l
clears this register, other than those bits where the condition still exists after *RST.
l
The command reads the condition register and returns a decimal value equal to the binary-weighted sum of all bits
set in the register. For example, if bit 5 (decimal value = 32) and bit 9 (decimal value = 512) are set, the command
will 544.
STATus:OPERation:ENABle <
enable_value
>
STATus:OPERation:ENABle?
Enables bits in the
for the
group. The selected bits are then reported to
the Status Byte as the standard operation summary bit.
Parameter
Typical Return
Sum of the bits' decimal values in the register.
+256
Enable bit 8 (decimal value 256) in the enable register:
STAT:OPER:ENAB 256
l
Use <
enable_value
> to specify which bits are reported to the Status Byte. The specified value corresponds to the
binary-weighted sum of the register bits to enable. For example, to enable bit 5 (value 32) and bit 9 (value 512),
the decimal value would be 544.
l
does not clear the enable register, but does clear the event register.
STATus:OPERation[:EVENt]?
Queries the event register for the
group. This is a read-only register; the bits are cleared
when you read the register.
Parameter
Typical Return
(none)
+32
Read event register:
STAT:OPER:EVEN?
l
A set bit remains set until cleared by reading the event register or
l
does not affect this register.
l
Query reads the event register and returns a decimal value equal to the binary-weighted sum of all bits set in the
register. For example, if bit 5 ( value 32) and bit 9 (value 512) are set, the command r544.
