7.4 Self test
A self test can be performed over the bus by sending the *TST? query command. The self-test will run
until the first error is encountered and terminate. The response to the query will either be the first error
encountered or 0 if no error was found. (Self-test passed).
To execute a self-test, the IEEE-488, LAN or USB interface must be used. The iXCGui command self-
test window can be used to send the *TST? Command. See the section 9 for possible self test error
codes and messages.
