Using the mixer and feedback settings typical situations can be tested using various vector probe modes. Here, for this IIR performance test, the feedback is configured in linear mode with proportional gain one and integration set to zero. This means the IIR filter output (feedback input signal) can be monitored as Z signal. See URL: http://sourceforge.net/ apps/wordpress/gxsm/2009/10/09.
