Details
This attribute reads the operation event register of the status model.
The instrument returns a decimal value that corresponds to the binary-weighted sum of all bits set in
the register.
Example
STAT:OPER?
Returns the contents of the Operation Event
Register of the status model.

Usage
:STATus:OPERation:MAP <bitNumber>, <setEvent>
:STATus:OPERation:MAP <bitNumber>, <setEvent>, <clearEvent>
:STATus:OPERation:MAP? <bitNumber>
bitNumber
The bit number that is mapped to an event (0 to 14)
setEvent
The number of the event that sets the bits in the condition and event registers; 0 if
no mapping
clearEvent
The number of the event that clears the bit in the condition register; 0 if no mapping
Details
You can map events to bits in the event registers with this command. This allows you to cause bits in
the condition and event registers to be set or cleared when the specified events occur. You can use
any valid event number as the event that sets or clears bits.
When a mapped event is programmed to set bits, the corresponding bits in both the condition register
and event register are set when the event is detected.
When a mapped event is programmed to clear bits, the bit in the condition register is set to 0 when
the event is detected.
If the event is set to zero (0), the bit is never set.
See
(on page C-10) for information about event numbers.
The query requests the mapped set event and mapped clear event status for a bit in the Operation
Event Registers. When you query the mapping for a specific bit, the instrument returns the events
that were mapped to set and clear that bit. Zero (0) indicates that the bits have not been set.
