When the HSC is in Counting mode, and PLS is enabled, this parameter
indicates which PLS element is used for the current HSC configuration.
The Error Codes detected by the HSC sub-system are displayed in this word.
Errors include:
Writing to this element is not recommended except for clearing existing errors
and to capture new HSC errors.
HSCSTS.Accumulator contains the number of counts detected by the HSC
sub-system. If either mode 0 or mode 1 is configured, the accumulator is reset
to 0 when a high preset is reached or when an overflow condition is detected.
The HSCSTS.HP is the upper set point (in counts) that defines when the HSC
sub-system generates an interrupt.
The data loaded into the high preset must be less than or equal to the data
resident in the overflow (HSCAPP.OFSetting) parameter or an HSC error is
generated.
This is the latest high preset setting, which may be updated by PLS function
from the PLS data block.
The HSCSTS.LP is the lower set point (in counts) that defines when the HSC
sub-system generates an interrupt.

Error Description
Bit 15…8 (high byte) 0…255
The non-zero value for high byte indicates that the HSC
error is due to PLS data setting. The value of high byte
indicates which element of PLS data triggers the error.
Bit 7…0 (low byte)
0x00 No error
0x01 Invalid HSC counting mode
0x02 Invalid High preset
