Description The Service Request Enable (SRE) mask is used to control which bits in the status
byte generate back plane interrupts. If a bit is set in the mask that newly enables a
bit set in the status byte and interrupts are enabled, the module will generate a
REQUEST TRUE event via an interrupt. See the *STB? Command for the layout of
bits.
Note:
Bit 6 is always internally cleared to zero as required by IEEE 488.2 section 11.3.2.3.
The layout of the Service Request Enable Register is:
Bit 0 – Unused
