*ESE(?) <n>
The
*ESE
common command sets the Standard Event Status Enable Register. The parameter <n> is
the decimal value that programs the enable register.
Example
:
*ESE 12
Set bits 2 and 3
*ESR? [<n>]
The
*ESR?
common query reads the value of the Standard Event Status Register. If the parameter
<n> is present, the value of bit <n> is returned. Reading this register without specifying <n> will clear
the register, but reading bit <n> will clear only bit <n>. The range of <n> is 0 to 7.
Example
:
ESR? 2
Request and clear bit 2
*PSC(?) <n>
The
*PSC
(Power-on Status Clear) common command sets the value of the power-on status clear bit.
If <n> = 1, the power-on status clear bit is set, and all status registers and enable registers are
cleared on power-up. If <n> = 0, the bit is cleared, and the status enable registers maintain their
values at power-down. This feature allows the generation of a service request at power-up.
Example
:
*PSC 1
Set power-on status clear bit
*SRE(?) <n>
The
*SRE
(Service Request Enable) common command sets the value of the Service Request
Enable Register. The parameter <n> is the decimal value representing the register bits to be set.
Example
:
*SRE 3
Set bits 0 and 1
*STB? [<n>]
The
*STB?
(Status Byte) common query reads the value of the Status Byte Register. If the parameter
<n> is included, the value of bit <n> is returned. Reading this register has no effect on its value; it
only represents the summary of the other status registers. The range of <n> is 0 to 7.
Example
:
*STB? 1
Request bit 1 status
