5.5.3.1 IEEE-488.2 STATUS REPORTING (continued)
STANDARD EVENT STATUS REGISTER (ESR)
Events reported by the STANDARD EVENT STATUS register may be queried via the *ESR? command.
Reading the ESR register clears it. The EVENT STATUS summary bit in the STATUS BYTE (STB) will be
set when an unmasked EVENT STATUS bit goes true (Figure 5.2, below).
BIT NAME DEFINITION
7 PON POWER ON indicates Input power was just applied
6 URQ USER REQUEST indicates "LOCAL" key was just pressed
5 CME COMMAND ERROR indicates invalid command or query received
4 EXE EXECUTION ERROR indicates can't execute command with data received
3 DDE DEVICE DEPENDANT ERROR indicates UPC not properly configured
2 QYE QUERY ERROR indicates cannot respond with data
1 RQC REQUEST CONTROL - not used
0 OPC OPERATION COMPLETE indicates previous operation complete
Setting an EVENT STATUS ENABLE (ESE) bit true unmasks the EVENT bit in the ESR. Also see
:SYSTem:ERRor? query for corresponding information ( 5.5.3.2 ).
