*OPC does not prevent processing of subsequent commands, but bit 0 will not be set until all pending operations are completed.

*OPC? causes the instrument to place an ASCII "1" in the Output Queue when all pending operations are completed. Unlike *OPC, *OPC? prevents processing of all subsequent commands. It is intended to be used at the end of a command line so that the application program can then monitor the bus for data until it receives the "1" from the dc source Output Queue.

Command Syntax

*OPC

Parameters

None

Query Syntax

*OPC?

Returned Parameters

<NR1> 1

Related Commands

*OPC *TRIG *WAI

*PSC

This command controls the automatic clearing at power-on of the Service Request Enable and the Standard Event Status Enable registers

*PSC ON 1

*PSC OFF 0

causes these registers to be cleared at power-on. This prevents a PON event from generating SRQ at power-on.

causes the contents of the Standard Event Enable and Service Request Enable registers to be saved in nonvolatile memory and recalled at power-on. This allows a PON event to generate SRQ at power-on.

The query returns the current state of *PSC.

Command Syntax

*PSC <Bool>

Parameters

0 1 OFF ON

Example

*PSC 0

*PSC 1

Query Syntax

*PSC?

 

Returned Parameters

<NR1>01

Related Commands

*ESE

*SRE

CAUTION: *PSC causes a write cycle to nonvolatile memory. Nonvolatile memory has a finite maximum number of write cycles. Programs that repeatedly cause write cycles to nonvolatile memory can eventually exceed the maximum number of write cycles and cause the memory to fail.

*SRE

This command sets the condition of the Service Request Enable Register. This register determines which bits from the Status Byte Register (see *STB for its bit configuration) are allowed to set the Master Status Summary (MSS) bit and the Request for Service (RQS) summary bit. A 1 in any Service Request Enable Register bit position enables the corresponding Status Byte Register bit and all such enabled bits then are logically ORed to cause Bit 6 of the Status Byte Register to be set.

When the controller conducts a serial poll in response to SRQ, the RQS bit is cleared, but the MSS bit is not. When *SRE is cleared (by programming it with 0), the dc source cannot generate an SRQ to the controller.

The query returns the current state of *SRE.
