localnode.showevents
This attribute sets whether or not the instrument automatically outputs generated events to the remote interface.
Type TSP-Link accessible Affected by Where saved Default value
Attribute (RW) No Power cycle Not saved 0 (no events sent)
Usage
errorMode = localnode.showevents
localnode.showevents = errorMode
The errors that are returned:
• No events: 0
• Errors only: 1 (eventlog.SEV_ERROR)
• Warnings only: 2 (eventlog.SEV_WARN)
• Errors and warnings: 3 (eventlog.SEV_ERROR| eventlog.SEV_WARN)
• Information only: 4 (eventlog.SEV_INFO)
• Information and errors: 5 (eventlog.SEV_INFO |eventlog.SEV_ERROR)
• Warnings and information: 6 (eventlog.SEV_INFO|eventlog.SEV_WARN)
• All events:

Details
Enable this attribute to have the instrument output generated events to the remote interface.
Events are output after a command message is executed but before prompts are issued (if prompts
are enabled with localnode.prompts).
If this attribute is disabled, use eventlog.next() to retrieve unread events from the event log.
Events are enabled or disabled only for the remote interface that is active when you send the
command. For example, if you enable show events when the GPIB connection is active, they will not
be enabled for a subsequent USB connection.
Example
localnode.showevents = eventlog.SEV_ERROR | eventlog.SEV_INFO
trigger.digin[3].edge = trigger.EDGE_EITHER
Send generated error and warning messages.
Example output if the edge cannot be sent to either:
1805, Settings conflict: setting input edge when line 3 set for digital
