*ESE?
event status enable query
To read the contents of the Standard Event Status Enable Register.
*ESE?
This command is used to acquire the value (in decimal) of the Standard Event Status Enable
Register. The binary equivalent of the decimal value determines which bits in the register are
set. When the *ESE? query command is sent, the decimal value is placed in the Output Queue.
When the Model 7001 is addressed to talk, the value is sent from the Output Queue to the com-
puter.
For example, for an acquired decimal value of 48, the binary equivalent is 00110000. For this
binary value, bits B4 and B5 of the Standard Event Status Enable Register are set. For informa-
tion on the Standard Event Status Enable Register, refer to paragraph 5.6.
The *ESE? query command does not clear the Standard Event Status Enable Register.
10 OUTPUT 707; “*ESE?” ! Send query command
20 ENTER 707; A$ ! Address 7001 to talk
30 PRINT A$ ! Display value of register contents
