Channel Configuration, Data, and Status 4-13
Explanations of the status conditions follow.
Channel Status (Bit 0)
The channel status bit indicates operational state of the channel.
When the channel enable bit is set in the configuration word, the
thermocouple module configures the selected channel and takes a
data sample for the channel data word before setting this bit in the
status word.
Input Type Status (Bits 1 through 4)
The input type bit field indicates what type of input signal you have
configured for the channel. This field reflects the input type defined in
the channel configuration word.

TIP
It takes one timing cycle to complete an update.
(Refer to Chapter 3 for module update times.)
IMPORTANT
If the channel for which you are seeking status is
disabled, all bit fields are cleared. The status word
for any disabled channel is always 0000 0000 0000
0000 regardless of any previous setting that may
have been made to the configuration word.
