Function Initiates a self-‐test of the switch and returns 0 if the switch
passes the self-‐test or 1 if it fails.

*WAI Command
Syntax
*WAI
Function Prevents the switch from executing any further commands
or queries until all previously pending operations have been
completed.
There are no consequences to this command because all
commands are executed sequentially; therefore, any
subsequent commands are completed by the time this
command is parsed.
Example
*WAI
Status Commands
:STATus:OPERation:CONDition?
Syntax
:STATus:OPERation:CONDition?
Function Returns the contents of the operation condition register as
an integer that, when converted to a binary number,
represents the bit values of the register.
The switch only uses bit 1 of the operation condition
register. Bit 1, the Settle bit, is set when the switch is in the
process of switching.
Example
:STAT:OPER:COND?
