STATus:OPERation Condition and Event Enable Registers

The STATus:OPERation condition register continuously monitors the hardware and firmware status of
the analyzer, and is read-only. To query the register, send the :STATus:OPERation:CONDition?
command. The response will be the decimal sum of the bits that are set to 1. For example, if bit number 9
and bit number 3 are set to 1, the decimal sum of the 2 bits is 512 plus 8. So the decimal value 520 is
