Usage
measurementRegister = status.measurement.reading_overflow.condition
measurementRegister = status.measurement.reading_overflow.enable
measurementRegister = status.measurement.reading_overflow.event
measurementRegister = status.measurement.reading_overflow.ntr
measurementRegister = status.measurement.reading_overflow.ptr
status.measurement.reading_overflow.enable = measurementRegister
status.measurement.reading_overflow.ntr = measurementRegister
status.measurement.reading_overflow.ptr = measurementRegister
measurementRegister
The status of the measurement reading overflow summary
register; a zero (0) indicates no bits set (also send 0 to clear all
bits); other values indicate various bit settings
Details
These attributes are used to read or write to the measurement event reading overflow summary
registers. Reading a status register returns a value. The binary equivalent of the returned value
indicates which register bits are set. The least significant bit of the binary number is bit B0, and the
most significant bit is bit B15. For example, assume the value 2 is returned for the enable register.
The binary equivalent is 0000 0000 0000 0010. This value indicates that bit B1 (SMUA) is set.
For information about .condition, .enable, .event, .ntr, and .ptr registers, refer to Status register set
contents (on page 12-1) and Enable and transition registers (on page 12-19). The individual bits of
this register are defined in the following table.
Bit
Value
Description
B0
Not used
Not applicable.
B1
status.measurement.reading_overflow.SMUA
Set bit indicates that an overflow
reading has been detected for SMU A.
Bit B1 decimal value: 2
Binary value: 0000 0010
B2
status.measurement.reading_overflow.SMUB
This bit is only available on 2602B,
2604B, 2612B, 2614B, 2634B, and
2636B. Set bit indicates that an
overflow reading has been detected for
SMU B.
Bit B2 decimal value: 4
Binary value: 0000 0100
B3 to B15
Not used
Not applicable.
As an example, to set bit B1 of the measurement event reading overflow summary enable register,
set status.measurement.reading_overflow.enable =
status.measurement.reading_overflow.SMUA.
In addition to the above constants, measurementRegister can be set to the numeric 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 B2, set measurementRegister to 6 (which is
the sum of 2 + 4).
Example
status.measurement.reading_overflow.enable =
status.measurement.reading_overflow.SMUA
Sets the SMU A bit of the measurement reading overflow summary enable register using a constant.
