NU = (Not used); OC = Overcurrent protection circuit has tripped.

OT = Overtemperature status condition exists; OV = Overvoltage protection circuit has tripped. RI = Remote inhibit is active; UNR = Power supply output is unregulated.

Note: See "Chapter 4 - Status Reporting" for more explanation of these registers.

STAT:QUES?

This query returns the value of the Questionable Event register. The Event register is a read-only register which holds (latches) all events that are passed by the Questionable NTR and/or PTR filter. Reading the Questionable Event register clears it.

Query Syntax

STATus:QUEStionable[:EVENt]?

Parameters

(None)

 

Returned Parameters

<NR1>

(Register Value)

STAT:QUES:COND?

This query returns the value of the Questionable Condition register. That is a read-only register which holds the real-time (unlatched) questionable status of the power supply.

Query Syntax

STATus:QUEStionable:CONDition?

Parameters

(None)

Examples

STAT:QUES:COND? STATUS:QUESTIONABLE:CONDITION?

Returned Parameters

<NR1> (Register value)

STAT:QUES:ENAB

This command and its query set and read the value of the Questionable Enable register. This register is a mask for enabling specific bits from the Questionable Event register to set the questionable summary bit (QUES) of the Status Byte register. This bit (bit 3) is the logical OR of all the Questionable Event register bits that are enabled by the Questionable Status Enable register.
