Example

*OPC

This command starts to monitor pending operations, and sets/clears the Operation
Complete (OPC) bit in the Standard Event Status Register as follows:
• If there is no pending operation, sets the OPC bit to 1.
• If there are any pending operations, sets the OPC bit to 0. The bit will be set to 1
again when all pending operations are completed.
So, *OPC command is required to enable the OPC bit. To stop monitoring pending
operations (disable OPC bit), execute the *CLS command.
For details about the Standard Event Status Register, refer to Chapter 3. Also, see
*WAI command.
When the operations initiated by the following commands are finished, the OPC bit
in the Standard Event Status Register is set:
