Status Registers

Use Status Registers to Determine the State of Analyzer Events and Conditions

NOTE

All bits are summary bits from lower-level event registers. (For a general diagram

 

of the STATus:QUEStionable register, see Figure 2-9.)

 

A Questionable Status condition register query response will be the decimal sum

 

of the bits which are set to 1. For example, if bit number 9 and bit number 3 are set

 

to 1, the decimal sum of the 2 bits is 512 plus 8. So the decimal value 520 is

 

returned.

 

The transition filter specifies which types of bit state changes in the condition

 

register will set corresponding bits in the event register. The changes may be

 

positive (from 0 to 1) or negative (from 1 to 0). Send the command

 

:STATus:QUEStionable:NTRansition <num> (negative transition) or

 

:STATus:QUEStionable:PTRansition <num> (positive transition) where

 

<num> is the sum of the decimal values of the bits you want to enable.

 

The Questionable Status event register latches transition events from the condition

 

register as specified by the transition filters. Event registers are destructive

 

read-only. Reading data from an event register will clear the content of that

 

register. To query the event register, send the command

 

:STATus:QUEStionable[:EVENt]?
