Details
These attributes are used to read or write to the operation status TSP-link overrun 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, if a value of 10 is read as the value of the condition register, the binary equivalent
is 0000 0000 0000 1010. This value indicates that bit B1 and bit B3 are set.
* Least significant bit
** Most significant bit
A set bit indicates that the specified line generated an action overrun when triggered to generate an
output trigger.
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.
status.operation.instrument.tsplink.trigger_overrun.LINE1
status.operation.instrument.tsplink.trigger_overrun.LINE2
status.operation.instrument.tsplink.trigger_overrun.LINE3
As an example, to set bit B1 of the operation status TSP-Link overrun enable register, set
status.operation.instrument.tsplink.trigger_overrun.enable =
status.operation.instrument.tsplink.trigger_overrun.LINE1.
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 B1 and B3, set operationRegister to 10 (which is the
sum of 2 + 8).
