9.4 Status Register System & STATus Subsystem
Operation Instrument Enable
Determines which bits in the "Operation Instrument Condition" on page 2469
Register will set bits in the "Operation Instrument Event Query" on page 2470
register, which also sets the Instrument Summary bit (bit 11) in the "Operation
Instrument Register" on page 2469.
The variable <integer> is the sum of the decimal values of the bits you want to
enable.
NOTE
The preset condition is to have all bits in this enable register set to 0. To have
any Instrument Events reported to the Status Byte Register, one or more bits
need to be set to 1.

Operation Instrument Event Query
Returns the decimal value of the sum of the bits in the Operation Instrument Event
register.
NOTE
The register requires that the associated PTRansition or NTRansition filters be
set before a condition register bit can set a bit in the event register. The data in
this register is latched until it is queried. Once queried, the register is cleared.
