:STATus:OVERload:ENABle?
Description
Enters a decimal-weighted value in the enable register that masks the ability to report bits in the Overload Register (see :STATus:OVERload:EVENt?).

When there is only one oscilloscope connection in the system and that oscilloscope has eight or fewer channels (that is, it needs only one bank), the Overload Registers give you a shortcut to the Overload All Connection 1 Bank 1 registers which have the same content but ultimately cascade to a different summary bit in the Operation Status Register.
Bit Definitions
- CH1-CH8
- A true indicates the channel has reported overloads since the last time the register was read. If the oscilloscope has fewer than eight channels, only those bits are used.
