	read by *STB?
RQS	the IEEE 488.1 Service Request Flag read by Serial Poll.
MSS	the Master Summary Status is generated by performing a bit by bit AND
	of the Status Byte and the Service Request Enable Register and then
	ORing the resulting bits.
ESB	the Event Summary Bit generation is described under Standard Event
	Status Enable Register.
MAV	the Message Available Status Bit is set when there is data in the Output
	Queue.
Comm. T.O	set when a communication time out event occurs. Cleared when the
	TORST command is issued.
PRIM_ERR	this is the Primary Status Summary Bit.
SRQ_IS	this is the Channels Events Summary Bit.

The Service Request Enable Register has mask bits at positions corresponding to the status bits of the Status Byte. Unused bits are cleared.

The SRE Register is used for calculating the MSS and RQS flags.

The Parallel Poll Enable Register has mask bits at positions corresponding to the status bits of the Status Byte. Unused bits are cleared.

The PRE Register is used for calculating the IEEE 488.1 IST (Individual Status) message (as read by the Remote Controller during a Parallel Poll).
