6.7.3 Editing Commands
The contents of the SCPI Recording window can be edited and copied through the clip-
board into a file. From the commands in this file it is possible to generate an IEC/IEEE
bus control program. Open the context menu by clicking on the right mouse key. To
operate the SCPI Recorder you need an external keyboard and mouse.
6.8 Status Reporting System
The status reporting system stores all information about the current operating status of
the device, (e.g. that it is currently performing a hard copy) and about errors that occur-
red. This information is stored in the status registers and the error queue. The contents
of status registers and the error queue can be queried on the IEC/IEEE bus or via the
LAN or USB interface.
Information is hierarchically structured. The highest level is formed by the Status Byte
(STB) register defined in IEEE 488.2 and the associated Service Request Enable
(SRE) register.
The STB obtains its information from the standard Event Status Register (ESR) also
defined in IEEE 488.2 with the associated enable register standard Event Status
Enable (ESE) and the registers defined by SCPI, STATus:OPERation and STA-
Tus:QUEStionable and the instrument-specific registers STATus:XQUEStionable, STA-
Tus:QUEStionable:UNDERrange, STATus:QUEStionable:OVERrange and STA-
