Using Serial Poll
Except for SRQ, a bit in the Serial Poll Status register is not cleared by serial polling.
When reading the status using a serial poll, the SRQ bit signals that the SR844 is
requesting service. The SRQ bit will be set (1) the first time the SR844 is polled
following a service request. The serial poll automatically clears the service request.
Subsequent polls will return SRQ cleared (0) until another service request occurs. Polling
the status byte and reading it with *STB? can return different values for SRQ. When
polled, SRQ indicates a service request has occurred. When read with *STB?, SRQ
indicates that an enabled Serial Poll Status bit is set.
