Description
These query commands are used to read the contents of the condition registers. Each set of
event registers (except the Standard Event register set) has a condition register. A condition
register is similar to its corresponding event register, except that it is a real-time register that
constantly updates to reflect the present operating status of the instrument. See [:EVENt] for
register bit descriptions.
After sending one of these commands and addressing the Model 2182 to talk, a decimal value
is sent to the computer. The binary equivalent of this decimal value indicates which bits in the
register are set.
For example, if sending :stat:meas:cond? returns a decimal value of 512 (binary
0000001000000000), bit B9 of the Measurement Condition Register is set indicating that the
trace buffer is full.
