Command Description
*CLS
CLEAR STATUS sets the status byte (STB), the standard event register (ESR) and
the EVENt-part of the QUEStionable and the OPERation registers to zero. The
command does not alter the mask and transition parts of the registers. It clears the
output buffer.
*ESE 0 to 255
EVENT STATUS ENABLE sets the event status enable register to the value indicated.
The query form *ESE? returns the contents of the event status enable register in
decimal form.
*ESR? STANDARD EVENT STATUS QUERY returns the contents of the event status
register in decimal form (0 to 255) and subsequently sets the register to zero.
*IDN? IDENTIFICATION QUERY queries the instrument identification. The response is for
example:
"Fluke,NORMA4000,KN34512BA,01.00"
KN34512BA = Serial number of the instrument
01.00 = Firmware version number
*OPC OPERATION COMPLETE sets bit 0 in the event status register when all preceding
commands have been executed. This bit can be used to initiate a service request.
*OPC? OPERATION COMPLETE QUERY writes message "1" into the output buffer as soon
as all preceding commands have been executed.
*OPT? OPTION IDENTIFICATION QUERY queries the options included in the instrument
and returns a list of the options installed. The options are separated from each other
by means of commas. Requests identification of the device options. Example of a
device response: "Option1,Option2".
*RST RESET sets the instrument to a defined default status. The default setting is indicated
in the description of the commands.
*SRE 0 to 255 SERVICE REQUEST ENABLE sets the service request enable register to the
indicated value. Bit 6 (MSS mask bit) remains 0. This command determines under
which conditions a service request is generated. The query form *SRE? reads the
contents of the service request enable register in decimal form. Bit 6 is always 0.
*STB? READ STATUS BYTE QUERY reads out the contents of the status byte in decimal
form.
*TRG TRIGGER immediately starts the measurement if the instrument is in single-shot
mode (INITiate:CONTinuous OFF). This command corresponds to INITiate:IMMediate
(see section "TRIGger subsystem"). If memory recording is configured, ARM and
TRIGger layers are bypassed and the instrument immediately starts storing data.
Synchronization condition must be met if synchronization is ON.
*WAI WAIT-to-CONTINUE permits servicing of subsequent commands only after all
preceding commands have been executed and all signals have settled.
*SAV 10 to 24 SAVE SETUP saves instrument setup into the specified user configuration memory.
*RCL 1 to 24 RECALL SETUP recalls instrument setup from the specified configuration memory.
*LRN? LEARN SETUP STRING queries complete instrument setup. The setup is returned as
a sequence of semicolon separated commands. If this sequence is sent to the
instrument, the instrument configuration is fully restored.
