When initializing the MAX11410, it is recommended to first perform calibration to reduce errors. Aside from setting the registers in the question statement, the filter register (0x08) should also be configured to set the conversion rate before starting the conversion. Please read the status bit CONV_RDY bit in the status register. If CONV_RDY is 1, the result of the conversion can be read.
Note that this bit clears when read. Therefore after reading the status register, you will be reading 0s if you read a second time. What is typically done is to use the interrupt pin to trigger the interrupt. In the interrupt service routine, read from the status register once before processing the interrupt rather than repeatedly reading the status register.
