Meaning and Type

*CLS

Meaning and Type

Clear Status Device Status

Description

This command causes the following actions (see "Status Reporting" for descriptions of all registers):

Clears the following registers without affecting any corresponding Enable Registers or Transition Filters:

Standard Event Status Event Register

Operation Status Event Register

Questionable Status Event Register

Status Byte Register

Clears the Error Queue

Forces a previously executed *OPC command to appear as if it had been completed. It does not do this with the *OPC? command (see *OPC? for more details).

If *CLS immediately follows a program message terminator (<NL>), then the output queue and the MAV bit are also cleared.

Command Syntax

*CLS

*ESE

Meaning and Type

Event Status Enable

Device Status

Description

This command programs the Standard Event Status Enable register bits. The programming determines which events of the Standard Event Status Event register (see *ESR?) are allowed to set the ESB (Event Summary Bit) of the Status Byte register. A "1" in the bit position enables the corresponding event. All of the enabled events of the Standard Event Status Event Register are logically ORed to cause the ESB (bit 5) of the Status Byte Register to be set. See "Status Reporting" for descriptions of all three registers.

CME = Command error; DDE = Device-dependent error; EXE = Execution error; OPC = Operation complete; PON = Power-on; QRY = Query error

If *PSC is programmed to zero, *ESE causes a write cycle to nonvolatile memory. Non volatile 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.
