Status Registers
Use Status Registers to Determine the State of Analyzer Events and Conditions
Standard Event Status Event Enable Register
The event enable register (contained in the standard event status
register) lets you choose which bits will set the summary bit (bit 5 of the
status byte register) to 1. Send the *ESE <number> command (where
<number> is the sum of the decimal values of the bits you want to
enable).
For example, to enable bit 7 and bit 6 so that whenever either of those
bits is set to 1, the standard event status summary bit of the status byte
register will also be set to 1, send the *ESE 192 (128 + 64) command.
The *ESE? command returns the decimal value of the sum of the bits
previously enabled with the *ESE <number> command.
