NU = (Not used); OC = Overcurrent protection circuit (OCP) or hardware overcurrent level (OC) has tripped.
OT = Overtemperature status condition exists; OV = Overvoltage pro tectio n circuit has tripped.
RI = Remote inhibit is active; UNR = Agilent SAS output is unregulated.
Note: See chapter 8 for more information about 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)
Examples STAT:QUES? STATUS:QUESTIONABLE:EVENT?

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 Agilent SAS.
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.
