:OPERation STATus:OPER:COND? returns the state of the condition register in the

:CONDition?

Operation Status group. The state represents conditions which are part of an

 

instrument’s operation.

 

Comments

• Bit 8 in the register is used by the System Instrument (Command

 

Module) to indicate when an interrupt set up by the DIAG:INTerrupt

 

commands has been acknowledged.

 

 

• Reading the condition register does not change the setting of bit 8. Bit 8

 

is cleared by the DIAG:INT:RESP? command.
