Bit Value Description
status.questionable.CALIBRATION
status.questionable.CAL
An enabled bit in the questionable status
calibration summary event register is set.
Bit B6 decimal value: 256
status.questionable.UNSTABLE_OUTPUT
status.questionable.UO
An enabled bit in the questionable status unstable
output summary event register is set.
Bit B9 decimal value: 512
status.questionable.OVER_TEMPERATURE
status.questionable.OTEMP
An enabled bit in the questionable status over
temperature summary event register is set.
Bit B12 decimal value: 4,096
status.questionable.INSTRUMENT_SUMMARY
status.questionable.INST
An enabled bit in the questionable status
instrument summary event register is set.
Bit B13 decimal value: 8,192
As an example, to set bit B9 of the questionable status enable register, set status.questionable.enable
= status.questionable.UO.
In addition to the above constants, questionableRegister can be set to the numeric equivalent of the bit to
set. To set more than one bit of the register, set questionableRegister to the sum of their decimal weights.
For example, to set bits B12 and B13, set questionableRegister to 12,288 (which is the sum of 4,096 +
8,192).
