SCPI Command Reference
*OPC

*OPC

This command starts to monitor pending operations, and sets/clears the Operation
Complete (OPC) bit in the Standard Event Status Register as follows:

If there is no pending operation, sets the OPC bit to 1.

If there are any pending operations, sets the OPC bit to 0. The bit will be set to 1
again when all pending operations are completed.

operations (disable OPC bit), execute the *CLS command.
