STATus:QUEStionable Register
The STATus:QUEStionable register contains information on instrument states that do
not meet the specifications.
You can read out the register with
STAT:QUES:COND
or
STAT:QUES:EVEN
.
The
STATus:QUEStionable
register "sums up" the information from all subregisters
(e.g. bit 2 sums up the information for all
STATus:QUEStionable:TIMe
registers).
For some subregisters, there may be separate registers for each active channel. Thus,
if a status bit in the
STATus:QUEStionable
register indicates an error, the error may
have occurred in any of the channel-specific subregisters. In this case, you must check
the subregister of each channel to determine which channel caused the error. By
default, querying the status of a subregister always returns the result for the currently
selected channel.
