firmware revision levels and is sent in the following format:

Where: xxxxxxx is the serial number.

B *OPC
⎯
Operation Complete
Set the OPC bit in the standard event register
after all pending commands are complete.
Description
After the *OPC command is sent, the Operation Complete bit (bit B0) of the Standard
Event Status Register will set immediately after the last pending command is completed.
If the corresponding bit (Bit B0) in the Standard Event Enable Register and Bit 5 (Event
Summary Bit) of the Service Request Enable Register is set, the RQS/MSS (Request for
Service/Master Summary Status) bit in the Status Byte Register will set.
When used with the immediate initiation command (:INITiate), the OPC bit in the
Standard Event Status Register will not set until the Model 2700 goes back into the idle
state. The :INIT command operation is not considered finished until the Model 2700 goes
back into the idle state. See the description for *WAI for more information on command
execution.
Programing example – The first group of commands program send the *OPC command
after the :INITiate command and verifies that the OPC bit in the Standard Event Status
Register does not set while the instrument continues to make measurements (not in idle).
The second group of commands return the Model 2700 to the idle state and verifies that
the OPC bit did set.
SYST:PRES ‘ Returns 2700 to default setup.
INIT:CONT OFF ‘ Disables continuous initiation.
ABORt ‘ Aborts operation. Places 2700 in idle.
INIT:IMM ‘ Initiate one trigger cycle.
*OPC ‘ Sends the OPC command.
*ESR? ‘ Reads the Standard Event Status Register.
After addressing the Model 2700 to talk, the returned value of 0 denotes that the bit (bit 0)
is not set indicating that the :INITiate operation is not complete.
ABORt ‘ Aborts operation. Places 2700 in idle.
*ESR? ‘ Reads the Standard Event Status Register.
