|----------------------------------------------------------------|The desired trigger generator rate is that which was selected in the most recently issued SETPWF command (or power-up rate if SETPWF was not issued). The current rate may be different from the desired rate due to bounding against limits for the current pulse width, or being in an odd ray cycle during dual-PRT processing. The measured PRTs are forced to 0xFFFF (the maximum unsigned value) when the external trigger is expected, but missing.

processed, and we either have an external trigger, or an internal trigger that is not in
any of the dual-PRT modes. The units are the same as for the measured current trigger
period in Output #3.
Output 31 ... Output 37 are the
current processing and threshold parameters set by SOPRM. See Setup operating parameters (SOPRM).
Since the threshold levels for each data
parameter can be different (see Set Individual Thresholds (THRESH)), words 33 ... 36 are taken from the
velocity parameter.

from which we obtain:
The four integer values become rather small and severely quantized when the noise power drops to low values. Previously, these words helped balance the individual gain of the I and Q channels in RVP6 in the presence of a strong test signal. Since I and Q are inherently balanced in the RVP10, these output words are no longer of much value.
