Details
These attributes are used to read or write to the operation status trigger blender overrun registers. Reading a
status register returns a value. The binary equivalent of the returned value indicates which register bits are set.
The least significant bit of the binary number is bit B0, and the most significant bit is bit B15. For example, if a
value of 18 is read as the value of the condition register, the binary equivalent is 0000 0000 0001 0010. This
value indicates that bit B1 and bit B4 are set.
* Least significant bit
** Most significant bit
A set bit value indicates that the specified trigger blender generated an action overrun.
For information about .condition, .enable, .event, .ntr, and .ptr registers, refer to Status register set contents (on
page E-1) and Enable and transition registers (on page E-19). The individual bits of this register are defined in
the following table.
Bit Value Description
B1
status.operation.instrument.trigger_blender.trigger_overrun.BLND1
Bit B1 decimal
B2
status.operation.instrument.trigger_blender.trigger_overrun.BLND2
value: 4
status.operation.instrument.trigger_blender.trigger_overrun.BLND3
value: 8
status.operation.instrument.trigger_blender.trigger_overrun.BLND4
status.operation.instrument.trigger_blender.trigger_overrun.BLND5
status.operation.instrument.trigger_blender.trigger_overrun.BLND6
As an example, to set bit B1 of the operation status trigger blender overrun enable register, set
status.operation.instrument.trigger_blender.trigger_overrun.enable =
status.operation.instrument.trigger_blender.trigger_overrun.BLND1.
In addition to the above constants, operationRegister can be set to the numeric equivalent of the bit to set.
To set more than one bit of the register, set operationRegister to the sum of their decimal weights. For
example, to set bits B1 and B4, set operationRegister to 18 (which is the sum of 2 + 16).
