DELTA ELEKTRONIKA BV PSC SERIES Name Description of the standard Event Status Register Operation complete indicates whether an operation is completed or is still pending. Request Control Not implemented. Always set to 0. This error will occur when the Message Exchange Protocol is violated. -
Page 23: Dsc
PSC SERIES DELTA ELEKTRONIKA BV 14.2.10 DSC? The Device Status Condition register contains the power supply’s status, and returns a decimal value, which expressed in base 2, reflects the bit values of the Device Status. Execution of this query will not clear this register. -
Page 24: Opc
DELTA ELEKTRONIKA BV PSC SERIES 14.2.14 *OPC The Operation Complete Command allows for synchronization between a controller and several devices. It causes the instrument to set the Operation Complete Command -OPC- bit in the Standard Event Status Register to be set true when all selected pending operations have been finished. This implies that all device operations initiated by previous programming commands have been entirely completed or aborted. -
