The Status Byte
The status byte
summary register
reports conditions from other status
registers. Query data that is waiting in the multimeter’s output buffer is
immediately reported through the “message available” bit (bit 4). Bits in
the summary registers are
not
latched. Clearing an event register will
clear the corresponding bits in the status byte summary register.
Reading all messages in the output buffer, including any pending
queries, will clear the message available bit.
Bit Definitions – Status Byte Register
The status byte
summary register
is cleared when:
•
You execute a
*CLS
(clear status) command.
•
Querying the standard event and questionable data registers will
clear only the respective bits in the summary register.
The status byte
enable register
(request service) is cleared when:
•
You turn on the power and you have previously configured the
multimeter using the
*PSC 1
command.
•
You execute a
*SRE 0
command.
The status byte enable register
will not
be cleared at power-on if you
have previously configured the multimeter using
*PSC 0.
