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 15-1) and Enable and transition registers (on page 15-19). The individual bits of
this register are defined in the following table.
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
In addition to the above constants, measurementRegister can be set to the decimal value of the
bit to set.
Example 1
status.measurement.reading_overflow.enable =
status.measurement.reading_overflow.SMUA
Uses the constant to set bit B1 of the measurement reading overflow summary enable register.
Example 2
status.measurement.reading_overflow.enable = 2
Uses the decimal value to set bit B1 of the measurement reading overflow summary enable register.
