FLUKE 45 Command Emulation Summary

Computer Interface Command Set

RS-232 and IEEE 488 commands, grouped by related function, are listed in the tables
that follow. These commands are identical, except where indicated. A parameter that
must be supplied by the user or a string returned by the Meter is enclosed in angle
brackets (<value>).

IEEE 488 Capabilities and Common Commands

Table 20 summarizes the IEEE 488 Commands that are common between the Fluke
884XA and the Fluke 45.
Command
*CLS Clear Status
*ESE <value> Event Status Enable
*ESE? Event Status Enable
Query
*ESR? Event Status
Register Query
Table 20. IEEE Common Commands
Name
Clears all event registers summarized in the status byte,
except for "Message Available," which is cleared only if *CLS
is the first message in the command line.
Sets Event Status Enable Register to <value>, an integer
between 0 and 255, where <value> is an integer whose binary
equivalent corresponds to the state (1 or 0) of bits in the
register. If <value> is not between 0 and 255, an Execution
Error is generated.
EXAMPLE: decimal 16 converts to binary 00010000. Sets bit 4
(EXE) in ESE to 1.
Meter returns the <value> of the Event Status Enable Register
set by the *ESE command, where <value> is an integer whose
binary equivalent corresponds to the state (1 or 0) of bits in the
register.
Meter returns the <value> of the Event Status Register and
then clears it. The <value> is an integer whose binary
equivalent corresponds to the state (1 or 0) of bits in the
register.
