For information about .condition, .enable, .event, .ntr, and .ptr registers, refer to Status register set
contents (on page C-1) and Enable and transition registers (on page C-19). The individual bits of this
register are defined in the following table.

B15
Not used
Not applicable
As an example, to set bit B0 of the operation status user enable register, set
status.operation.user.enable = status.operation.user.BIT0.
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 B11 and B14, set operationRegister to 18,432 (which
is the sum of 2,048 + 16,384).
