For information about .condition, .enable, .event, .ntr, and .ptr registers, refer to Status register sets (on page E-
2) and Enable and transition registers
(on page E-18). The individual bits of this register have the following
meanings:
Bit Value Description
B0
status.operation.user.BIT0
Bit B0 decimal value: 1
B1
status.operation.user.BIT1
Bit B1 decimal value: 2
B2
status.operation.user.BIT2
Bit B2 decimal value: 4
B3
status.operation.user.BIT3
Bit B3 decimal value: 8
B4
status.operation.user.BIT4
Bit B4 decimal value: 16
B5
status.operation.user.BIT5
Bit B5 decimal value: 32
B6
status.operation.user.BIT6
Bit B6 decimal value: 64
B7
status.operation.user.BIT7
Bit B7 decimal value: 128
B8
status.operation.user.BIT8
Bit B8 decimal value: 256
B9
status.operation.user.BIT9
Bit B9 decimal value: 512
B10
status.operation.user.BIT10
Bit B10 decimal value: 1024
B11
status.operation.user.BIT11
Bit B11 decimal value: 2048
B12
status.operation.user.BIT12
Bit B12 decimal value: 4096
B13
status.operation.user.BIT13
Bit B13 decimal value: 8192
B14
status.operation.user.BIT14
Bit B14 decimal value: 16,384
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 2048 + 16,384).

Example 1
operationRegister = status.operation.user.BIT11 +
status.operation.user.BIT14
status.operation.user.enable = operationRegister
Sets bits B11 and B14 of the operation
status user enable register using
constants.
