contents of the individual registers of these register sets may be accessed by
appending the commands listed in
The following command descriptions detail the SCPI register you require to

The Channel A and B sensor connected bits (bits 1 and 2), when queried with the
STATus:DEVice:CONDition? query are set to:
– 1, when a power sensor is connected
– 0, when no power sensor is connected
The Channel A and B sensor connected bits (bits 1 and 2), when queried with the
STATus:DEVice:EVENt? query indicate whether a power sensor has been
connected or disconnected depending on the state of the corresponding bits of
STATus:DEVice:NTRansition and STATus:DEVice:PTRansition. If the
corresponding bit in:
