MGR10 A/B/C - Revision : I (for 7.0 software revision)

This reporting system follows the style of SCPI, and the unused bits are allocated to other functions
which allow for expansion and compatibility with other SCPI compliant devices.
Questionable Data Registers
Temperature Range (bit 4)
This bit is set when the last measurement resulted in a temperature measurement error (eg. out of
range).
Resistance (bit 9)
This bit is set when the last measurement resulted in a resistance measurement error (eg. over-
range, polarity error, excess resistance in current leads).
Below Lower Limit (bit 11)
This bit is set when the limits facility is on, and the last measurement was less than the lower limit.
Above Upper Limit (bit 12)
This bit is set when the limits facility is on, and the last measurement was greater than the upper
limit.
The following commands are used to access these registers;
STATus:QUEStionable:CONDition?
Query the Questionable Data Condition Register. The instrument returns a binary-weighted
decimal value representing the bits set in the condition register.
STATus:QUEStionable:EVENt?
Query the Questionable Data Event Register. The instrument returns a binary-weighted decimal
value representing the bits set in the event register, and clears it.
STATus:QUEStionable:ENABle <enable value>
Enable bits in the Questionable Data Enable Register. The selected bits are then reported to the
Status Byte.
STATus:QUEStionable:ENABle?
Query the Questionable Data Enable Register. The instrument returns a binary-weighted decimal
value representing the bits set in the enable register.
