Agilent Technologies Signal Analyzer N9030a - Manual (Page 140)

3 Programming the Analyzer
STATus Subsystem
The bit is valid for most X-Series Modes.
5 Waiting for trigger The instrument is waiting for the trigger conditions to be met,
then it will trigger a sweep or measurement.
Questionable Status Register
The questionable status register monitors the instrument’s condition to see if anything
questionable has happened to it. It is looking for anything that might cause an error or a bad
measurement like a hardware problem, an out of calibration situation, or a unusual signal. All the
bits are summary bits from lower-level event registers.
Bit Condition Operation
3 Power summary The instrument hardware has detected a power
unleveled condition.
4 Temperature summary The instrument is still warming up.
5 Frequency summary The instrument hardware has detected an unlocked
condition or a problem with the external frequency
reference.
8 Calibration summary The instrument has detected a hardware problem
while doing the automatic internal alignment
process.
9 Integrity summary The instrument has detected a questionable
measurement condition such as: bad timing, bad
signal/data, timeout problem, signal overload, or
“meas uncal”.
STATus Subsystem Command Descriptions
The STATus subsystem controls the SCPI-defined instrument status reporting structures. Each
status register has a set of five commands used for querying or masking that particular register.
Numeric values for bit patterns can be entered using decimal or hexadecimal representations, that
is, decimal values 0 to 32767, which are equivalent to hexadecimal values #H0 to #H7FFF.)
Operation Register
The following commands and queries are available for this register:
"Operation Condition Query" on page 141
"Operation Enable" on page 141
