2 SCPI Programming
— Use the <enable_value> parameter to specify which bits will be enabled. The decimal value specified
corresponds to the binary-weighted sum of the bits you wish to enable in the register. For example, to
enable bit 2 (decimal value = 4), bit 3 (decimal value = 8), and bit 7 (decimal value = 128), the
corresponding decimal value would be 140 (4 + 8 + 128).
— You can use the *PSC
power on.
— The *CLS (clear status) command will not clear the enable register but it does clear all bits in the
register.
Return Format
— The query command returns a value from 0 to 65,535.
— The query command reads the enable register and returns a decimal value which corresponds to the
binary-weighted sum of all bits set in the register. For example, if bit 3 (decimal value = 8) and bit 7
(decimal value = 128) are enabled, the query command will return "+136".
Examples
The following command enables bit 4 (decimal value = 16) in the enable register. If an Execution Error
occurs, this condition will be reported to the Status Byte Register (bit 5 will be set high).
*ESE 16
The following query returns which bits are enabled in the register.
*ESE?
