status.system2.*
status.system2.condition
status.system2.enable
status.system2.event
* = condition, enable or event
Attribute TSP-Link system2 data structure register set.
Usage Reads condition, enable and event registers:
enablereg = status.system2.condition
enablereg = status.system2.enable
enablereg = status.system2.event
Writes to enable register:
status.system2.enable = enablereg
Set enablereg to one of the following values:
0 Clears all bits.
1 or status.system2.EXTENSION_BIT Sets EXT bit (B0).
1 or status.system2.EXT Sets EXT bit (B0).
status.system2.NODEn Sets a node bit (Bn); n = 15 to 28.
Remarks • In an expanded system (TSP-Link), this attribute is used to read or write to the system2
node registers.
• Reading a system2 node register returns a numeric value whose binary equivalent
indicates which register bits are set. The bits of the system2 node register are identified as
follows:
Bit B0 – EXT bitBit B4 – Node 18Bit B8 – Node 22Bit B12 – Node 26
Bit B1 – Node 15Bit B5 – Node 19Bit B9 – Node 23Bit B13 – Node 27
Bit B2 – Node 16Bit B6 – Node 20Bit B10 – Node 24 Bit B14 – Node 28
Bit B3 – Node 17Bit B7 – Node 21Bit B11 – Node 25 Bit B15 – Not used
• For example, assume value 9 is returned for the enable register. The binary equivalent is
0000000000001001. This value indicates that bit 0 (EXT) and bit 3 (Node 17) are set.
• Assigning a value to the status.system2.enable attribute sets the extension bit or a
node bit of the system2 node enable register.
Details See “System Summary Event Registers” in Appendix D.

Example Sets the extension bit of the system2 enable register:
status.system2.enable = status.system2.EXT
