The SCPI Status Registers
The SCPI Status Registers
The function generator uses the Status Byte, the Standard Event,
and the Questionable Data register groups (phase-lock assembly only)
to record various instrument conditions. This section discusses only the
Questionable Data register group; refer to chapter 4 in the HP 33120A
User's Guide for a complete discussion of the status registers. A diagram
of the
status system is shown on the next page.
SCPI
An example program is included in chapter 6, "Application Programs,"
of the HP 33120A User's Guide which shows the use of the status registers.
You may find it useful to refer to the program after reading the following
section in this chapter.
