Queries; Ieee 488.2 Common Command Subsystem - Ametek ASTDC60D1C-E00 Programming Manual

SCPI Status Implementation

Queries

9.3.3
The query syntax is identical to the command syntax with a "?" appended. For
example, to query the programmed voltage, send the string: SOURce:VOLTage?. A
subsequent device read will return a value such as "33.000". All queries are terminated
with a carriage return and line feed (0x0D 0x0A). When the power supply has nothing
to report, its output buffer will contain two ASCII characters: a carriage return and
linefeed (in decimal the values are: <13><10>).

IEEE 488.2 COMMON COMMAND SUBSYSTEM

9.4
The following commands are common to all SCPI instruments and declared mandatory
by IEEE 488.2. In the following table, the power supply is defined as the "device" on
the GPIB bus.
Command
*CLS
*ESE <0+NR1>
*ESE?
*ESR?
*IDN?
*OPC
*RST
*SRE <0+NR1>
9-10
Clears all status reporting data structures including the Status Byte,
Standard Event Status
STAT:PROT:ENAB (protection event enable register) is cleared by this
command; other enable registers are not cleared by this command.
Sets the value of the Standard Event Status Enable Register that
determines which bits can be set in the Standard Event Status
Register. See section 9.2.2 for valid values.
Returns the integer value of the Standard Event Status Enable
Register. See section 9.2.2 for valid values.
Response: <0+NR1>
Returns the integer value of the Standard Event Status Register. The
ESR and the Status Byte ESR bit are cleared. See section 9.2.2 for
valid values.
Response: <0+NR1>
Returns the device identification as an ASCII string.
Response: <Manufacturer>, <model>, <serial number>,
<SC firmware version>, AIB firmware version>,<FPC
firmware version>
SC-System Controller
AIB- Analog Interface Board
FPC- Front Panel Controller
Example:
AMETEK, AST60-83D1C-E01,0622A00111,1.000,1.00,1.00
Enables the Operation Complete bit of the Standard Event Status
Register to be set when all pending operations are complete. See
section 9.2.2.
Resets the supply to its Power ON (PON) state.
Clears all status reporting data structures including the Status Byte,
Standard Event Status
STAT:PROT:ENAB (protection event enable register) is cleared by this
command; other enable registers are not cleared by this command.
Sets the value of the Service Request Enable Register, which
determines which bits in the Status Byte will cause a service request
from the device. See section on Status Byte for valid values.
