Set bit is a summary of the
status.measurement.voltage_limit register.
Bit B0 decimal value: 1

Set bit is a summary of the
status.measurement.reading_overflow
register.
Bit B7 decimal value: 128
B8
status.measurement.BUFFER_AVAILABLE
status.measurement.BAV
Set bit is a summary of the
status.measurement.buffer_available
register.
Bit B8 decimal value: 256

B11
status.measurement.OUTPUT_ENABLE
status.measurement.OE
Set bit indicates that output enable has been
asserted.
Bit B11 decimal value: 2048
B12 Not used Not applicable
B13
status.measurement.INSTRUMENT_SUMMARY
status.measurement.INST
Set bit indicates that a bit in the measurement
instrument summary register is set.

As an example, to set bit B8 of the measurement event enable register, set status.measurement.enable =
status.measurement.BAV.
In addition to the above constants, measurementRegister can be set to the decimal equivalent of the bit to
set. To set more than one bit of the register, set measurementRegister to the sum of their decimal weights.
For example, to set bits B1 and B8, set measurementRegister to 258 (which is the sum of 2 + 256).
