Common Commands
Receiving Common Commands
Common commands can be received and processed by the oscilloscope,
whether they are sent over the GPIB as separate program messages or
within other program messages. If a subsystem is currently selected and
a common command is received by the oscilloscope, the oscilloscope
remains in the selected subsystem. For example, if the program message
"ACQUIRE:AVERAGE ON;*CLS;COUNT 1024"
is received by the oscilloscope, the oscilloscope sets the acquire type,
clears the status information, then sets the number of averages without
leaving the selected subsystem.
Status Registers
The following two status registers used by common commands have an
enable (mask) register. By setting bits in the enable register, you can
select the status information for use. Refer to the chapter, “Status
Reporting,” for a complete discussion of status.
