measurementRegister
The status of the measurement reading overflow summary register; a zero (0)
indicates no bits set (also send 0 to clear all bits); other values indicate various
bit settings
Details
These attributes are used to read or write to the measurement event reading overflow summary
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, assume the value 2 is returned for the enable register.
The binary equivalent is 0000 0000 0000 0010. This value indicates that bit B1 (SMUA) is set.
For information about .condition, .enable, .event, .ntr, and .ptr registers, refer to
Enable and transition registers
(on page E-19). The individual bits of this
register are defined in the following table.
