■ Counter Operation States
The counter state is determined by the CNTE bit in the control register and the internal WAIT
signal. The available states are CNTE = "0" and WAIT = "1" (STOP state: operation halted),
CNTE = "1" and WAIT = "1" (WAIT state: waiting for a trigger), and CNTE = "1" and WAIT = "0"
(RUN state: operating).
Figure 3-3 shows the transitions between each state.
