Operation manual
STATus subsystem
This subsystem is used to enable bits in the Operation and Questionable Event registers. The
Operation and Questionable: Event, Enable and Condition registers can be interrogated to
determine their state.

STAT:OPER:EVEN?
This query returns the content of Operational Data Event register. It is a decimal value which
corresponds to the binary-weighted sum of all bits set in the register. Register is cleared after this
query.
Example:
STAT:OPER:EVEN?
STAT:OPER:ENAB? <DNPD>
This command enables bits in the Operational Data Enable register. Selected bits are summarized
at bit 7 (OSS) of the IEEE488.2 Status Byte register.
<DNPD>
Parameter represents required value of Operational Data Enable register.
If query is sent, calibrator returns the value of the registr as a decimal number. Example: 64 is
returned as 64.
Example:
Set bit 1 in the Operational Data Enable register (other bits are 0):
STAT:OPER:ENAB 2
STAT:OPER:COND?
This query returns the content of Operational Condition register. It is a decimal value which
corresponds to the binary-weighted sum of all bits in the register. Register is not cleared after this
query. The response to the query therefore represents an instantaneous 'Snapshot' of the register
state, at the time that the query was accepted.
