Description
Use this command to synchronize between a controller and the instrument using the MAV bit in the Status
Byte or a read of the Output Queue. The *OPC? query does not affect the OPC Event bit in the Standard
Event Status Register (ESR). Reading the response to the
*OPC?
query has the advantage of removing the
complication of dealing with service requests and multiple polls to the instrument. However, both the system
bus and the controller handshake are in a temporary hold-off state while the controller is waiting to read the
*OPC? query response.
Response
Returns "1" to the output buffer after all the previous commands have been executed.
*OPT?
HS Syntax: 1505@?
Description
Use this command to query the options that are installed in this specific module.
Response
Returns "0" if no option is installed or “2” for the 4 Meg memory option.
*RST
HS Syntax: 14200
Description
Use this command to reset the instrument to its default setting. Factory defaults are listed in the Default
column in Table 5-1.
*SRE<enable_bits>
HS Syntax: 1503A<n>
Description
Use this command to enable bits in the Service Request Enable register. The selected bits are then reported
to the status byte. Information on the service request register is given in the following.
Parameters
Name
Range
Default
Description
<enable_bits>
0-63, 128-191
0
Programs the event that will cause the register to request
service. Setting of “0” disables this feature.
*SRE?
HS Syntax: 1503A@?
Description
Use this command to query the programmed bits in the Service Request Enable register.
Response
The generator returns a decimal value in the range of 0 to 63 or 128 to 191 since bit 6 (RSQ) cannot be set.
The binary-weighted sum of the number represents the value of the bits of the Service Request enable
register.
*STB?
HS Syntax: 1508A@?
Description
Use this command to query the Status Byte for reported errors or events..
