| Bit | Name | Description | ||||||
| Quality Flag Bit 0 (LSB) | HSKOutOfBounds | Housekeeping values are out of bounds | The following table defines the Quality Flag bits | |||||
| Quality Flag Bit 1 | HSKFirstPacketDisturbed | Housekeeping values in first packet are disturbed by electrical interference | Values are set to 1 to indicate an issue is present | |||||
| Quality Flag Bit 2 | HSKDisturbedThroughout | Housekeeping values throughout are disturbed by electrical interference | A value of 0 indicates no issues | |||||
| Quality Flag Bit 3 | Reserved4 | Reserved for future use | If the MSB=1 than the Quality Flag is not in use | |||||
