Query
:STATus? {CHANnel<N> | FUNCtion<F> | HISTogram | WMEMory<N> | CLOCk
The :STATus? query shows whether the specified channel, function,
wmemory, histogram, measurement trend, measurement spectrum, or
equalized waveform is on or off. A return value of 1 means on and a
return value of 0 means off.
MTRend and MSPectrum sources are only available if the oscilloscope has
the EZJIT option installed and the feature is enabled.
The CLOCk source is only available if the oscilloscope has the High Speed
Serial option installed and the feature is enabled.

the activated digital channels in the D0- D7 range and the other that
includes all of the activated digital channels in the D8- D15 range.
<N>
