INVALID FIELD VALUE FIELD
If a ‘1’, this flag indicates that the Signal Generator detected an invalid field value in the last command received,
during the previous 1-second epoch. This flag is reset after the status message has been transmitted.
INVALID RANGE FIELDS FIELD
If a ‘1’, this flag indicates that the range fields contained in this status message are invalid and should not be used.

Hardware Status Fields
The Hardware Status field contains the current state of the Signal Generator hardware. The hardware is polled when
the Status Message is created at the start of the current 1 second epoch.

10 MHZ PRESENT FIELD
This flag indicates if the 10 MHz clock signal is present. If a ‘1’, then the 10 MHz signal is present. If a ‘0’, then the
10 MHz signal is absent.
CLOCK CIRCUIT FAULT FIELD
This flag indicates if the clock circuit board is faulty. If a ‘1’, then the clock circuit board is faulty. If a ‘0’, then the
