Questionable summary bit (Questionable event register)
The summary bit of the questionable event register provides enabled summary information to Bit B3
(QSB) of the status byte.
Figure 183: Questionable event register
As shown above, there is only one register set associated with the questionable status. Attributes are
summarized in
(on page 11-385). Keep in mind that bits can also be set by
using numeric parameter values. For details, see
Programming enable and transition registers
For example, any of the following statements will set the thermal aspect enable bit of a card in slot 1:
status.questionable.enable = status.questionable.S1THR
status.questionable.enable = status.questionable.SLOT1_THERMAL
status.questionable.enable = 512
The following command will request the questionable enable register value in numeric form:
print(status.questionable.enable)
The bits used in this register set are described as follows:
•
SxTHR:
Set bit indicates the thermal aspect of the card in slot x is in question, where x = 1 to 6.
