For example, either of the following commands will set the VOLTAGE_LIMIT enable bit:
status.measurement.enable = status.measurement.VOLTAGE_LIMIT
status.measurement.enable = 1
When reading a register, a numeric value is returned. The binary equivalent of this value indicates
which bits in the register are set. For details, see
following command will read the Measurement Event Enable Register:
print(status.measurement.enable)
This register set feeds to bit B0 (MSB) of the Status Byte. The bits used in the Measurement Event
Registers are described as follows:
•
Bit B0, Voltage Limit (VLMT): Set bit indicates that the voltage limit was exceeded. This bit will
be updated only when either a measurement is taken or the smuX.source.compliance
attribute is read.
•
Bit B1, Current Limit (ILMT): Set bit indicates that the current limit was exceeded. This bit will
be updated only when either a measurement is taken or the smuX.source.compliance
attribute is read.
•
Bit B7, Reading Overflow (ROF): Set bit indicates that an overflow reading has been detected.
•
Bit B8, Buffer Available (BAV): Set bit indicates that there is at least one reading stored in
either or both of the nonvolatile reading buffers.
•
Bit B11, Output Enable (OE): Set bit indicates that output enable was asserted.
•
Bit B13, Instrument Summary (INST): Set bit indicates that a bit in the Measurement Instrument
Summary Register is set.
Commands to program and read the register are summarized in the
page 15-4) table. For more information about the Measurement Event Registers, refer to
