Using SYSTem Commands
The SYSTEM commands are used to read and control miscellaneous Calibrator
functions. The Table X gives a summary of the Calibrator's SYSTem commands.
[SYSTem]: ERR?
Description: This command queries the Calibrator's error queue to retrieve the first
Query:
[SYSTem]: REM
Description: This command sets the Calibrator in remote mode for remote control
[SYSTem]: RWL
Description: This command sets the Calibrator in remote mode for remote control
[SYSTem]: LOC
Description: This command returns the calibrator to the local mode. This command
Using the STATus Subsystem
This subsystem is used to enable bits in the Operation and Questionable Event
registers. The Operation and Questionable Event, Enable and Condition registers can
be interrogated to determine their state. Table XIII gives a summary of the
Calibrator's STATUS commands.
[STATus]: OPER:EVEN?
Description: This query command returns the content of Operational Data Event
[STATus]: OPER:ENAB? <DNPD>
Description: This command enables bits in the Operational Data Enable register.
Parameters: <DNPD> Represents the register bits as a decimal number.
Example:

error in the queue. The error queue stores errors as first-in first-out
(FIFO). The error is deleted after being read. The earliest errors
remain in the queue, while the most recent error is discarded.
SYST:ERR? Returns first error in the error queue as an error code
followed by an error message.
through the RS-232 or IEEE-488. All keys on the front panel
except the LOCAL key are disabled.
Note
It is not possible to send or receive data over the RS-232 or IEEE-488
when the calibrator is not in remote mode.

sum of all bits set in the register. Register is cleared after this query.
Selected bits are summarized at bit 7 (OSS) of the IEEE 488.2 Status
Byte register.
STAT:OPER:ENAB 2 Sets bit 1 of the Operational Data Enable
STAT:OPER:ENAB? Returns the value of the Operational Data
