OPERATION 

 
 

The ESB bit indicates an enabled event in the Event Status Register 
(*ESR) occurred.  The *ESR contains bits to indicate Operation Complete 
(OPC), Query Error (QYE), Device Dependent Error (DDE), Execution 
Error (EXE), Command Error (CME) and Power On (PON).  The Event 
Status Enable Register (*ESE) contains a corresponding  enable bit for 
each event.  The OPC event is set upon completion of the parsing of a 
command string which includes the *OPC command.  A QYE event is 
generated when previously queried data is discarded without having been 
read.  The DDE event occurs when the tuner detects a failure of one or 
more of the monitored hardware subsystems and the enable DDE bit in the 
*ESR is set.  Reading the DDE register will indicate the cause for the 
failure event.  The EXE bit is set to indicate that the tuner has received a 
valid command with an out-of-bounds argument.  The CME bit indicates 
the tuner has received an unknown or invalid command mnemonic.  The 
PON bit is set whenever the unit power is cycled.  Anytime the control 
software restarts, the PON bit will be set.
