:QUEStionable:ENABle?
Description Queries the SCPI Questionable Enable register.
Query Response An integer which is the sum of the bit values for all bits in the register
that are set.
Examples :STAT:QUES:ENAB?
:QUEStionable:ENABle <integer>
Description Used to set and clear bits in the SCPI Questionable Enable register.
This register contains bits that are used to mask one or more
conditions indicated in the Questionable register. Setting a bit causes
that condition to be masked so that, even if the condition is true, its
associated bit will not get set in the Questionable register. The
Questionable Enable register has the same format as the Questionable
register. (See table above)
Examples :STAT:QUES:ENAB 1
:STAT:QUES:ENAB 1024
:QUEStionable:HARDware:CONDition?
Description Queries the SCPI Questionable Hardware Condition register which
contains bits that indicate that one or more hardware problems exist.
These problems may contribute to invalid or erred measurements. The
bits in the register are described in the table below.
Query Response An integer which is the sum of the bit values for all bits in the register
that are set.
