*CAL? ( C A L i b r a t e )
Function Executes zero calibration (zero level
compensation, same operation as pressing CAL
(SHIFT+MEASURE)) and queries the result.
Syntax *CAL?
Example *CAL? -> 0
Description If the calibration terminates normally, "0" is
returned. If abnormality is detected, "1" is
returned.
*CLS (CLear Status)
Function Clears the standard event register, extended
event register, and error queue.

*ESE
(standard Event
Function Sets the standard event enable register or
queries the current setting.
Syntax *ESE {<NRf>}
*ESE?
<NRf> = 0 to 255
Example *ESE 251
*ESE? -> 251
Description • Specify the value as a sum of decimal values
of each bit.
• For example, specifying "*ESE 251" will
cause the standard enable register to be set
to "11111011." In this case, bit 2 of the
standard event register is disabled which
means that bit 5 (ESB) of the status byte
register is not set to "1," even if a "query
error" occurs.
• The default value is "*ESE 0" (all bits
disabled).
• A query using *ESE? will not clear the
contents of the standard event enable
register.
• For details on the standard event enable
register, see page 6-3.
