7-4 Status Structure Models 2510 and 2510-AT User’s Manual
Clearing registers and queues
When the Model 2510 is turned on, the bits of all registers in the status structure are
cleared (reset to 0), and the two queues are empty. Commands to reset the event and event
enable registers, and the Error Queue are listed in
Table 7-1 . In addition to these com-
mands, any enable register can be reset by sending the 0 parameter value with the individ-
ual command to program the register.
NOTE
SYSTem:PRESet and *RST have no effect on status structure registers and
queues.
