*PSC

Sets and queries the power-on status flag that controls the

automatic power-on execution of SRER and ESER. When *PSC is

true, the SRER and ESER are set to 0 at power-on. When *PSC is

false, the current values in the SRER and ESER are preserved in

nonvolatile memory when power is shut off and are restored at

power-on.

Syntax

*PSC <NR1>

*PSC?

Commands

*RST (no query form)

*OPC (on page 4-7)

Arguments

<NR1> = 0 sets the power-on status clear flag to false, disables

the power-on clear, and allows the power supply to possibly assert

SRQ after power on.

<NR1> ≠ 0 sets the power-on status clear flag to true. Sending

*PSC 1 therefore enables the power-on status clear and prevents

any SRQ assertion after power-on.

Returns

0|1

Examples

*PSC 0

sets the power-on status clear flag to false.

*PSC?

might return 1, indicating that the power-on status clear flag is set

to true.
