There is the test unit ready command.
Either it returns OK, or you may get usefull sense data.
Here is an example:

No media in the drive:
[60]cicely13# camcontrol tur -n da -u 0 -v
Unit is not ready
(pass0:ahc0:0:1:0): TEST UNIT READY. CDB: 0 0 0 0 0 0 
(pass0:ahc0:0:1:0): CAM Status: SCSI Status Error
(pass0:ahc0:0:1:0): SCSI Status: Check Condition
(pass0:ahc0:0:1:0): NOT READY asc:3a,0
(pass0:ahc0:0:1:0): Medium not present
Exit 1

Media just inserted and give the drive some time to spin up:
[61]cicely13# camcontrol tur -n da -u 0 -v
Unit is not ready
(pass0:ahc0:0:1:0): TEST UNIT READY. CDB: 0 0 0 0 0 0 
(pass0:ahc0:0:1:0): CAM Status: SCSI Status Error
(pass0:ahc0:0:1:0): SCSI Status: Check Condition
(pass0:ahc0:0:1:0): UNIT ATTENTION asc:28,0
(pass0:ahc0:0:1:0): Not ready to ready change, medium may have changed
Exit 1

Just retry TUR command:
[62]cicely13# camcontrol tur -n da -u 0 -v
Unit is ready

Media ejected:
[63]cicely13# camcontrol tur -n da -u 0 -v
Unit is not ready
(pass0:ahc0:0:1:0): TEST UNIT READY. CDB: 0 0 0 0 0 0 
(pass0:ahc0:0:1:0): CAM Status: SCSI Status Error
(pass0:ahc0:0:1:0): SCSI Status: Check Condition
(pass0:ahc0:0:1:0): NOT READY asc:3a,0
(pass0:ahc0:0:1:0): Medium not present
Exit 1

Media reinserted without waiting the drive to spin up:
[64]cicely13# camcontrol tur -n da -u 0 -v
Unit is not ready
(pass0:ahc0:0:1:0): TEST UNIT READY. CDB: 0 0 0 0 0 0 
(pass0:ahc0:0:1:0): CAM Status: SCSI Status Error
(pass0:ahc0:0:1:0): SCSI Status: Check Condition
(pass0:ahc0:0:1:0): NOT READY asc:98,0
(pass0:ahc0:0:1:0): Vendor Specific ASC
Exit 1

After the drive spun up:
[65]cicely13# camcontrol tur -n da -u 0 -v
Unit is not ready
(pass0:ahc0:0:1:0): TEST UNIT READY. CDB: 0 0 0 0 0 0 
(pass0:ahc0:0:1:0): CAM Status: SCSI Status Error
(pass0:ahc0:0:1:0): SCSI Status: Check Condition
(pass0:ahc0:0:1:0): UNIT ATTENTION asc:28,0
(pass0:ahc0:0:1:0): Not ready to ready change, medium may have changed
Exit 1

Retry TUR:
[66]cicely13# camcontrol tur -n da -u 0 -v
Unit is ready
