Appendix C: SCPI Command Syntax
section for the general SCPI command
syntax format and usage details.
IEEE Mandated SCPI Commands
These commands control and query the communication event/error and status registers
as defined in the
Appendix D: SCPI Status and Event Registers
mandated by the IEEE.
Caution:
The mandated IEEE SCPI commands are not affected by
*CLS
The Clear Status (CLS) command clears the Status Byte register (STB), the standard
Event Status register (ESR), the standard Questionable status register, the standard
Operation Status register, and the error/event queue.
Syntax
*CLS
Parameter/Response
None
*ESE/*ESE?
*ESE command enables bits in the ESE register. The decimal integer value entered is
the binary equivalent of the desired 8-bit mask. Bits enabled in ESE and set in ESR
register will result in the Standard Event Status Summary bit (bit 5) in the STB register
being set. This then allows the reading of ESR by using the *ESR? query command to
determine the cause.
*ESE? query returns the decimal sum of the enabled bits in the ESE register. The
decimal sum is the binary equivalent of the 8-bit mask.
for the ESE/ESR register bits mapping.
Syntax
*ESE <integer>
*ESE?
Parameter/Response
<integer>
Allowable Values
0 - 255
