Figure 172: Questionable Status Registers
Clearing registers
You can use commands to reset the status registers.
*CLS resets the bits of the event and NTR registers to 0 and sets all PTR register bits on. This
command also clears the output queue.
status.reset() resets bits of the event and NTR registers to 0 and sets all PTR register bits on.
Refer to status.reset() (on page 11-328) for additional information.
In addition to these commands, you can reset the enable registers and the NTR to 0. To do this, send
the individual command to program the register with a 0 as its parameter value. The PTR registers
can be reset to their defaults by programming them with all bits on. Note that the event registers are
not programmable but can be cleared by reading them.
