Standard Event Status and Enable Register (ESR, ESE)
The
ESR
is already defined in the IEEE 488.2 standard. It is comparable to the
EVENt
register of a SCPI register. The standard event status register can be read out by the
query
*ESR
.
The
ESE

Query error
This bit is set in either of the two following cases: the controller wants to read data from the
sensor but has not sent a query, or it sends new commands to the sensor before it
retrieves existing requested data. A frequent cause is a faulty query which cannot be exe-
cuted.
3
Device-dependent error
This bit is set if a sensor dependent error occurs. An error message with a number
between -300 and -399 or a positive error number denoting the error in greater detail is
entered in the error queue.
