Power Modules Summary Register - read with SRQS?

The Power Module Status Summary Bit is placed in the bit position corresponding to the Power Module’s channel number in the Power Modules Summary Register:

1	1	1	1	1	1	1	0		0	0	0	0	0	0	0	0
6	5	4	3	2	1	0	9		8	7	6	5	4	3	2	1

			High	Byte								Low Byte

The Power Modules Summary Register is cleared when read.

The following status structure refers to the XMP 2600 main controller.

Standard Event Status Register - read with *ESR?

PON	0		CME	EXE	DDE	QYE	0	OPC

PON		set when a Power On event occurs.
CME		set when the XMP 2600 detects a Command Error.
EXE		set when the XMP 2600 detects an Execution Error.
DDE		set when the XMP 2600 detects a XMP 2600 Error Condition.
QYE		set when the XMP 2600 detects a Query Error.
OPC		Operation Complete - set by the OPC Command.

The register is cleared when read. If operating in 488.2 mode then the Summary Message ESB is cleared and <rqs> and <ist> are re-calculated.

Command Error is reported when the XMP 2600 detects Syntax or Semantic error in the input stream.

Execution Error is reported when the XMP 2600 detects an error in the parameters of a Command or Query or when the Command or Query can not be executed due to some condition.

Query Error is reported when the Remote Controller is trying to read data from the Output Queue when it is empty and no Command or Query are being executed or even present in the Input Queue. Query Error is, also, reported when the Remote Controller has
