IEEE-488 Reference
3-118
Bit B7, Buffer Available (BAV) —
Set bit indicates that there are at least two readings in the
trace buffer (PTR), or the buffer has become empty (NTR).
Bit B8, Buffer Half Full (BHF) —
Set bit indicates that the trace buffer is half full (PTR), or
that the buffer is no longer half full (NTR).
Bit B9, Buffer Full (BFL) —
Set bit indicates that the trace buffer is full (PTR), or that the
buffer is no longer full (NTR).
Bit B10 —
Not used.
Bit B11, Buffer Pretriggered (BPT) —
Set bit indicates that the trace buffer pretrigger event
has occurred (PTR), or the operations associated with the pretrigger have been completed
(NTR).
Bits B12 through B15 —
Not used.
Questionable Event Register:
Bits B0 through B3 —
Not used.
Bit B4, Temperature Summary (Temp) —
Set bit indicates that an invalid reference junction
measurement has occurred for thermocouple temperature measurements (PTR), or a subsequent
valid reference junction measurement has occurred (NTR).
Bits B5, B6 and B7 —
Not used.
Bit B8, Calibration Summary (Cal) —
Set bit indicates that an invalid calibration constant was
detected during the power-up sequence (PTR). The instrument will instead use a default calibra-
tion constant. This error will clear after successful calibration of the instrument.
Bits B9 through B13 —
Not used.
