DATA:POINts:EVENt:THReshold?

 

 

 

Set a bit in the event register when the specified number of readings

 

have been stored in reading memory during a scan. You can set the

 

memory threshold to any value between 1 reading and 50,000 readings.

 

The default is 1 reading. When the specified number of readings have

 

been stored in memory, the “Memory Threshold” bit (bit 9) is set to a “1”

 

in the register. To report any subsequent events, the reading count

 

must first drop below the programmed threshold before reaching the

 

threshold again. Once this bit is set, it remains set until cleared by the

 

STATus:OPER:EVENt? command or *CLS (clear status) command.

 

The :THReshold? query returns the number of readings currently

 

specified as the memory threshold.

enable register, and the Standard Operation enable register.

 

*PSC {01}

 

 

 

 

*PSC?

 

 

 

 

dc gv Pv

. Clear the Standard Event enable register and

 

Status Byte condition register at power on (*PSC 1). When *PSC 0 is in

effect, these two registers vz cleared at power on. The *PSC? query returns the power-on status clear setting. Returns “0” (do not clear at power on) or “1” (clear at power on).

*OPC

Set the “Operation Complete” bit (bit 0) in the Standard Event register at the completion of the current scan.
