VX1410 IntelliFrame Instruction Manual
3–131
Status and Events
The VX1410 IntelliFrame complies with SCPI version 1995.0. You can use the
SYSTem:VERSion? command to read the latest version or the *IDN? command
to read a more detailed identification message.
The VX1410 IntelliFrame supports the Status Byte model shown in Figure 3–11.
The figure shows core of the SCPI-required status reporting capability.
The status registers fit into a 16-bit integer with the most-significant bit always
zero (positive logic). Unused or “don’t care” bits in masks and registers always
return zeros when queried.
The Operation Status register and the Questionable Status register outputs are
logically ORed together as shown in Figure 3–11.
The Operation Status register contains information on the normal operation of
the VX1410 IntelliFrame. In particular, bit 8 contains summary information on
the VXI Monitor status register (see Figure 3–12). The VXI Monitor Status
register monitors activity on bits 0 through 3.
