Operation Status Group
The Operation Status registers record signals that occur during normal operation. As shown below, the
group consists of a Condition, PTR/NTR, Event, and Enable register. The outputs of the Operation Status
register group are logically-ORed into the OPER(ation) summary bit (7) of the Status Byte register.
Register Command Description
Condition STAT:OPER:COND? A register that holds real-time status of the circuits being
monitored. It is a read-only register.
PTR Filter STAT:OPER:PTR <n> A positive transistion filter that functions as described under
STAT:OPER:NTR|PTR commands in chapter 4. It is a
read/write register.
NTR Filter STAT:OPER:NTR <n> A negative transition filter that functions as described under
STAT:OPER:NTR|PTR commands in chapter 4. It is a
read/write register.
Event STAT:OPER:EVEN? A register that latches any condition that is passed through the
PTR or NTR filters. It is a read-only register that is cleared
when read.
Enable STAT:OPER:ENAB <n> A register that functions as a mask for enabling specific bits
from the Event register. It is a read/write register.
