Status Commands; Bit Configuration Of Channel Status Registers; Status:channel; Status:channel:condition - Keysight Technologies N3301A Programming Manual

Status Commands

These commands program the electronic load status registers. The electronic load has five groups of
status registers; Channel Status, Channel Summary, Questionable Status, Standard Event Status, and
Operation Status. Refer to chapter 3 under "Programming the Status Registers" for more information.

STATus:CHANnel?

Channel Specific
This query returns the value of the Channel Event register. The Event register is a read-only register
which holds (latches) all events that are passed into it. Reading the Channel Event register clears it.
