will cause the 1257 to start the transfer process.
The command:
SYST:NVUPD?
will return:
ACTIVE
during the update process and:
IDLE
at any other time or after the update process has completed.
Attempting to change intermediate memory during a flash update
cycle is prohibited. To illustrate this point, sending a MOD:SAV
while SYST:NVUPD? returns ACTIVE, will cause the 1257 to
ignore the request and push an error onto the system error queue.
These commands are NOT defined in the SCPI standard. These
commands follow the syntax rules of SCPI to implement this
functionality.
