SmarTak® Status Code Overview

Overview

The `SMTK_Status_Code` is a 32-bit unsigned integer that efficiently packs critical status information about an asset. By using bitwise operations, a wide range of data—from asset type to system health—can be transmitted in a single, compact field. This document provides a detailed breakdown of its structure and the definitions for each field.
