Questionable Power Register

Questionable Power Condition

:STATus:QUEStionable:POWer:CONDition?

This query returns the decimal value of the sum of the bits in the Questionable Power Condition register.

The data in this register is continuously updated and reflects the current conditions.

Key Type:

There is no equivalent front panel key.

Questionable Power Enable

:STATus:QUEStionable:POWer:ENABle <number>

:STATus:QUEStionable:POWer:ENABle?

This command determines what bits in the Questionable Power Condition Register will set bits in the Questionable Power Event register, which also sets the Power Summary bit (bit 3) in the Questionable Register. The variable <number> is the sum of the decimal values of the bits you want to enable.

Key Type:

There is no equivalent front panel key.

Factory Preset

 

and *RST:

32767 (all 1’s)

Range:

0 to 32767

Questionable Power Event Query

:STATus:QUEStionable:POWer[:EVENt]?

This query returns the decimal value of the sum of the bits in the Questionable Power Event register.

The register requires that the associated PTR or NTR filters be set before a condition register bit can set a bit in the event register.

The data in this register is latched until it is queried. Once queried, the register is cleared.

Key Type:

There is no equivalent front panel key.
