Details
Enable this attribute to have the instrument output generated events to the remote interface.
Events are output after a command message is executed but before prompts are issued (if prompts
are enabled with
localnode.prompts
).
If this attribute is disabled, use
eventlog.next()
to retrieve unread events from the event log.
Events are enabled or disabled only for the remote interface that is active when you send the
command. For example, if you enable show events when the GPIB connection is active, they will not
be enabled for a subsequent USB connection.
