Description
The Event Status Enable (ESE) command is used to set the bits of the Event Status
Enable Register. See ANSI/IEEE 488.2-1987 section 11.5.1 for a complete
description of the ESE register. A value of 1 in a bit position of the ESE register
enables generation of the Event Status Bit (ESB) in the Status Byte by the
corresponding bit in the Event Status Register (ESR). If the ESB is set in the Service
Request Enable (SRE) register, then an interrupt will be generated. See the *ESR?
command for details regarding the individual bits. The ESE register layout is:
Bit 0 - Operation Complete
Bit 1 - Request Control
Bit 2 - Query Error
Bit 3 - Device Dependent Error
Bit 4 - Execution Error
Bit 5 - Command Error
Bit 6 - User Request
Bit 7 - Power On
The Event Status Enable query reports the current contents of the Event Status Enable
Register.
