Status (MSS)
The Master Summary Status message indicates that the power supply has at least one
reason for requesting service. Although the MSS message is sent in bit position 5 of
the response to *STB?, it is not sent in response to a serial poll and not considered
part of the Status Byte.
MSS is TRUE if:
•
Status Byte bit 0 AND Service Request Enable Register bit 0, or
•
Status Byte bit 1 AND Service Request Enable Register bit 1, or
•
Status Byte bit 2 AND Service Request Enable Register bit 2, or
•
Status Byte bit 3 AND Service Request Enable Register bit 3, or
•
Status Byte bit 4 AND Service Request Enable Register bit 4, or
•
Status Byte bit 5 AND Service Request Enable Register bit 5, or
•
Status Byte bit 7 AND Service Request Enable Register bit 7.

RQS is TRUE if the Service Request Enable Register has a bit set and there is a
