status

Description

Returns the status of the AWG.

Syntax

Read

Gets the status of the device. Refer to table below for description of status configurations.

Example

unsigned deviceStatus;
deviceStatus = awg.status;

Write

Read-Only

Values

Decimal	Hex Code	Binary Code	Status
1	0x1	00000001	Armed
2	0x2	00000010	Triggered
4	0x4	00000100	In Loop
8	0x8	00001000	Auto-Armed
64	0x40	01000000	Infinite Loop

Note that the device can be simutaneously be in multiple states. In binary code, each "1" bit represents a state. If there is more than one state, then the binary code will have multiple "1" bits. For example if the device was Armed, Triggered, In Loop and Auto-Armed, then the binary code would be "00001111". Status can be output in any format so it is best to output it in binary code.
