This subsystem contains application specific commands.
Application Self Test
[:SENSe]:APPLication:TST?
Description
Executes an application self test and reports whether any errors were detected. A return value of “0” indicates that the test was completed without detecting any error.
Two self test types can be specified. If no test type is specified, then the test defaults to NORMal. The PWRon self test is a scaled‑down version of the normal self test that runs during the instrument power‑on cycle.

Application Self Test Result
[:SENSe]:APPLication:TST:RESult?
Title
Application Self Test Result
Description
Returns the application self test result of the previous call to the application self test. The response begins with an ASCII header. The header specifies the number of following bytes. It appears in the format #AX<block data>, where A is the number of digits in X, and X is the number of bytes that follow the header. The first information of the <block data> contains the overall self test string ( “PASSED” or “FAILED” ) followed by a comma, and each self test result separated by a comma. Each subset of the result is included in angle brackets, < >.
Note that an application self test command must be called prior to calling this command in order for the result to be valid.
