Common Commands
*CLS
Clears all the event status registers summarized in the status byte register.
This command resets the status data structure. It does this by emptying the
error queue and clearing all bits in all of the event registers.
*ESE <numeric_value>
Sets the bits in the Standard Event Enable register. The Standard Event regis-
ter monitors HP-IB errors and synchronization conditions such as operation
complete, request control, query error, device dependent error, execution
error, command error, and power on. The parameter is rounded to an integer
value and interpreted as a binary number, representing the bit values of the
register.
*ESE?
Returns the value of the Standard Event Enable register.
*ESR?
Reads and clears the Standard Event Status register. The register is cleared
when it is read. The response value is an integer, to be interpreted as a binary
number, representing the bit values of the register.
*IDN?
Returns a string value which identifies the instrument type and firmware ver-
sion. The string is a comma-separated list consisting of Manufacturer, Model
Number, Serial Number, and Firmware Revision.
