IEEE 488.2 Commands—Quick Reference

*CLS

Description This command sets the contents of the Standard Event Register

(ESR), the Status Byte Register (STB), and the Error Queue

(ERR) to zero. This command is commonly used to clear the

status registers before enabling SRQ. Note that the output

queue, Standard Event Status Enable Register (ESE), and

Service Request Enable Register (SRE) are not affected.

Syntax

*CLS

*ESE

Description This command is used to set bits in the Standard Event Status

Enable Register (ESE) to a new value (initial value is 255). The

contents of the ESE register are logically ANDed with the ESR

register. A non zero result will set the Event Summary Bit (ESB)

of the Status Byte Register (STB). This command is useful for

selecting which events may generate an SRQ.
