:HIERarchy?
VXI:CONF:HIER? Returns current hierarchy configuration information about
the selected logical address. The individual fields of the response are comma
separated. If the information about the selected logical address is not available
from the destination device (i.e., the requested device is not in the mainframe)
then Error -224 ("parameter error") will be set and no response data will be sent.
NOTE This command is included in the E1300/E1301 because it is a required SCPI
command. Since there are no message based devices in the E1300/E1301, most
of these fields will be null valued for the E1300/E1301.
Comments • This command returns the following values:
Logical address: an integer between -1 and 255 inclusive. -1
indicates that the device has no logical address.
Commander’s logical address: an integer between -1 and 255
inclusive. -1 indicates that the device has no commander or that the
commander is unknown. This value is always 0 for the E1300/E1301.
Interrupt handlers: a comma separated list of seven integers
between 0 and 7 inclusive. Interrupt lines 1–7 are mapped to the
individual return values. 0 is used to indicate that the particular
interrupt handler is not configured. A set of return values of
0,0,0,5,2,0,6 would indicate that:
• handler 4 is configured to handle interrupts on line 5
• handler 5 is configured to handle interrupts on line 2
• handler 7 is configured to handle interrupts on line 6
• handlers 1, 2, 3, and 6 are not configured
Interrupters: a comma separated list of seven integers between 0
and 7 inclusive. Interrupt lines 1–7 are mapped to the individual
return values. 0 is used to indicate that the particular interrupter is
not configured. A set of return values of 0,0,0,5,2,0,6 would indicate
that:
• interrupter 4 is configured to handle interrupts on line 5
• interrupter 5 is configured to handle interrupts on line 2
• interrupter 7 is configured to handle interrupts on line 6
• interrupters 1, 2, 3, and 6 are not configured
Pass/Failed: an integer which contains the pass/fail status of the
specified device encoded as follows:
0 = FAIL, 1 = IFAIL, 2 = PASS, 3 = READY
Manufacturer’s Specific Comments. Up to 80 character string
contains manufacturer specific data in string response data format.
This field is sent with a 488.2 string response data format, and will
contain the instrument name and its IEEE 488.1 secondary address
unless a start-up error is detected. In that case, this field will contain
one or more error codes in the form "CNFG ERROR: n, m, ...,z" .
See Appendix B, Table B-3 for a complete list of these codes.
