powerup. This setting has no impact on auto-switching and

Query.

OUTPut:QUEStionable

OUTPut:QUEStionable Subsystem

:PACKed?

returns binary
weighted decimal

Provides status on each output in a single packed integer.
Each bit is associated with an output channel. The least
significant bit = output 1, next bit = output 2, and so on. If bit is
0, output signal is present. Hence value of 0 indicates that all
outputs are outputting the source signal. If there was no output
from outputs 2 and 3, the response would be:
6 (1*0 + 2*1 + 4*1 + 8*0 + ... = 6)

[:UNPacked]?

returns array of
Boolean

Provides status on each output (lowest numbered output to
highest). 0 = signal at output, 1 = no signal at output. Same
result as PACKed? (see prior command), but information on
each output is provided with separate value. If outputs 3 and 5
were not outputting the source signal, the response would be:
0,0,1,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,0
