:OPERation[:EVENt]?
STATus:OPERation[:EVENt]? returns which bits in the event register (Operation Status Group) are set. The event register indicates when there has been a transition in the condition register.
Comments • Reading the event register clears the contents of the register. If the event register is to be used to generate a service request (SRQ), you should clear the register before enabling the SRQ (*SRE). This prevents an SRQ from occurring due to a previous event.
