Comments
·
The algorithm specified by <alg_name> may or may not be currently defined.
The setting specified will be used when the algorithm is defined.
·
*RST Condition: ALG:STATE ON
·
When Accepted: Both before and after INIT. Also accepted before and after
the algorithm referenced is defined.

Usage ALG:STATE ‘ALG2’,OFF disable ALG2
ALGorithm[:EXPLicit][:STATe]?
ALGorithm[:EXPLicit][:STATe]? <alg_name> returns the state (enabled or
disabled) of algorithm <alg_name>.

Comments
·
Since ALG:STATE is valid for an undefined algorithm, ALG:STATE? will return
the current state for <alg_name> even if it is not currently defined.
·
Returned Value: Numeric, 0 or 1. Type is uint16.
·
*RST Condition: ALG:STATE 1
ALGorithm[:EXPLicit]:TIME?
ALGorithm[:EXPLicit]:TIME? <alg_name> computes and returns a worst-case
execution time estimate in seconds.
