Computer Interface Command Set

 

 

Table 4-8. Command and Query Reference (cont)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

*SRE

 

Service Request Enable

 

 

 

 

Sets the Service Request Enable Register to the given value.

 

 

 

 

*SRE <value>

 

 

 

 

<value> = (0 .. 255)

 

*SRE?

*STB?

*TRG

*TST?

If the value is greater than 255, a Command Error is generated. The value of bit 6 is ignored, since it is not used by the Service Request Enable Register.

Service Request Enable Query

Returns the integer value of the Service Request Enable Register, with bit 6 set to 0.

Read Status Byte Query

Returns the integer value of the Status Byte, with bit 6 as the master summary bit. Note that a serial poll returns bit 6 as the RQS message.

Trigger

When parsed, this command causes the instrument to request a Single Scan. If a scan is already in progress when this command is parsed, an additional scan is not executed.

Self Test Query

Causes an internal self test to be run, returning the result as an integer (representing the binary encoded value.) The self test does not require any local operator interaction and returns the instrument to the power-up state. The binary coding is:

12

4096

Memory RAM test failed (2625A only).

 

 

 

*WAI

Wait-to-continue

 

 

This command is accepted by Hydra, but has no effect. *WAI is required

 

by the IEEE-488.2 standard, but is non-operational in Hydra.
