Standard Event Status Register - Agilent Technologies ESA Series User's/Programmer's Reference

NOTE You must always add 64 (the numeric value of RQS bit 6) to your numeric sum
when you enable any bits for a service request.
The service request enable register contains the following bits:
Figure 4-5 Service Request Enable Register
The service request enable register presets to zeros (0).
NOTE

Standard Event Status Register

The standard event status register is used to determine the specific event that sets bit 5 in the status byte
register. The standard event status register does not have negative and positive transition registers, nor a
condition register. Use the IEEE common commands at the beginning of
Reference." in this guide to access the register.
To query the standard event status register, send the *ESR command. The response will be the decimal
sum of the bits which are set to 1. For example, if bit number 7 and bit number 3 are set to 1, the decimal
sum of the 2 bits is 128 plus 8. So the decimal value 136 is returned.
