+4 dBm
OVLD
Displays green when an IF overload condition has been
detected. Either the RF signal applied at RF B IN has
exceeded maximum operating level or the IF attenuation
setting is too low.
BUSY
Displays green when the PXI Interface is BUSY writing
commands to the internal hardware. No other commands
should be sent to this PXI module while BUSY is active.
This number indicates the internal real-time ambient
temperature of the module in degrees Celsius.
