状态字节和位怎么转换

美好的一天，我正在使用gpib和linux-gpib库编程HP8510C VNA。
我正在使用ibrsp（）函数（实际上在python包中称为rsp（））来轮询设备的状态字节，以找出单个扫描或单个点何时完成。
我很难理解手册和其他资源，可以使用一些具体的例子。
我得到状态字节作为我转换为int的十六进制值。
我的理解是字节是int8（0-255）但我返回的十六进制值只能转换为int16。
你可能无法帮助...它只是增加了混乱。
无论如何，我从int16演员那里得到一个数字：1或2，当测量完成时。
有时我得到一个像IF过载的错误，它也包含在状态字节的某个地方......我意识到单个扫描和单点测量将在其中一个字节（主要或次要）上设置不同的状态位
但我不知道如何破译输出。
我已经使用了gpib命令“OUTPSTAT”，它看起来更容易处理，因为它返回类似于：000,000或017,000和016,000。
但是，除非操作完成，否则此命令将失败并显示超时错误。
我可以把命令放进去试试，赶上来克服这个但是那是另一个黑客...我讨厌黑客......这就是为什么我回到了ibrst（）串口轮询命令。
如果一个善良的灵魂可以帮助我，我将非常感激...我将在下周进入实验室并发回相关细节。
对不起，我的问题很模糊，我还在基本了解。
干杯

  Good day,

I'm programming an HP8510C VNA with gpib and the linux-gpib library.

I am using the ibrsp() function ( actually called rsp() in the python package ) to poll the device for the status bytes, to find out when a single sweep or a single point, has finished.

I am having difficulty in understanding the manual and other resources and could use some concrete examples.

I get the status bytes as a hexidecimal value that I convert to an int. My understanding is that the bytes are int8 ( 0-255)
but my returned hex value only casts into int16. You may not be able to help with that...it just adds confusion.

Anyhow, I get a number from the int16 cast like: 1 or 2 when a measurement is complete.  Sometimes I get an error like an IF overload and that is included somewhere in the status bytes too...

I realize that a single sweep and a single point measurement will have a different status bit set on one of the bytes ( primary or secondary) but I don't know how to decipher the output.


I've played around with the gpib command "OUTPSTAT" and it looks easier to deal with, since it returns something like:
000,000   or  017,000 and 016,000. However, this command fails with a timeout error unless the operation is complete.
I could put the command into a try, catch to overcome this but that's another hack...I hate hacks...That's why I went back to the ibrst() serial poll command.

If a kind soul out there can help me I will be very grateful...I'll be in the lab next week and can post back
pertinent details.

Sorry that my question is vague, I'm still developing a basic understanding.
Cheers
