Do you want
to do Status
Reporting?
NO
Skip this section ("Status Reporting").
YES
Do you
want to report events
monitored by the Standard
Event Status
Register?
YES
Use the following:
*
ESE 189
This enables any of the available
bits to generate a summary bit to
the Status Byte Register.
(See Note 1)
YES
Use the following:
:STAT:OPER:ENAB 6704
This enables any of the available bits to
generate a summary bit to the Status Byte
Register. (See Note 1)
Do you
want to report a
measurement complete
event from the
Operation Status
Group?
YES
Use the following:
:STAT:OPER:PTR 6688
:STAT:OPER:NTR 16
This enables the negative transition of the
"measuring event" bit to generate a summary
bit to the Status Byte Register.
Do you want
to report events
monitored by the
Questionable Data/Signal
Status Group?
YES
Use the following:
:STAT:QUES:ENAB 20 520
This enables any of the available bits to
generate a summary bit to the Status Byte
Register. (See Note 1)
NO
NO
NO
NO

NOTES:
1. All of the enable commands, used on this figure, enable all of the active
bits for each event register and the Status Byte Register. You do not have
to enable all bits. Read the description of each register to determine which
bits you want to enable.
2. Additional analysis should be performed if more than one bit is set.
