IEEE Mandatory Commands
Command
Description
*CLS
Clear the status (*ESR, TESR) registers.
*ESE
Set the standard event status enable (mask) register.
*ESE nnn -- where nnn is 0 – 255
NOTE
: See *ESR? for the meaning of each bit in the mask.
*ESE?
Read the standard event status enable (mask) register.
*ESR?
Read the standard event status register.
bit 7 – power on – not used
bit 6 – user request -- not used
bit 5 – command error (cme)
bit 4 – execution error (exe)
bit 3 – device dependent error (dde)
bit 2 – query error (qye)
bit 1 – request control -- not used
bit 0 – operation complete -- not implemented
NOTE
: The above bits are latched, and are automatically cleared
when the register is read.
*RST
Reset (force) the System to the
Manual Operation Screen
.
NOTE
: Any device-specific errors are reset. If the system was in
Program mode, the software configuration file, and the presently
chosen test setup (including setpoints) are loaded from memory. If
the system was already in Manual mode, the present configuration,
setup, and setpoint information are left unchanged.
NOTE
: After sending this command, wait 4 seconds before sending
another command.
<serial poll>
Read the status byte by performing a serial poll.
bit 7 – ready
bit 6 – request for service (RQS)
bit 5 – standard event status (ESB) summary bit
bit 4 – message available (MAV) (GPIB only, always 0 for RS-232)
bit 3 – temperature event (TESR) summary bit
bit 2 – device specific error (EROR) summary bit
bit 1 – not used (always 0)
bit 0 – not used (always 0)
NOTE
: The “request for service” flag (bit 6) is automatically reset
when a serial poll is performed.
*SRE
Set the service request enable (mask) register.
*SRE nnn -- where nnn is 0 – 255
NOTE
: See <serial poll> for the meaning of each bit in the mask.
*SRE?
Read the service request enable (mask) register.
