Questionable Status Calibration Condition and
Event Enable Registers
The Questionable Status Calibration condition register continuously monitors the
calibration status of the analyzer. Condition registers are read-only. To query the
condition register, send the command
:STATus:QUEStionable:CALibration:CONDition? The response will be
the decimal sum of the bits which are set to 1.
The transition filter specifies which types of bit state changes in the condition
register will set corresponding bits in the event register. The changes may be
positive (from 0 to 1) or negative (from 1 to 0). Send the command

Description
Oversweep (Meas Uncal): A 1 in this position indicates
that the analyzer is in a state that could lead to uncalibrated
measurements. This is typically caused by sweeping too fast
for the current combination of span, resolution bandwidth, and
video bandwidth. Auto coupling may resolve this problem.
Signal Ident ON: A 1 in this bit position indicates that
amplitude measurements may be in error due to signal
identification routines being active. Amplitude accuracy is
degraded when signal identification is active.
Reserved: This bit is not used by the analyzer, but is for
future use with other Agilent products.
Unused: This bit is always set to 0.
