GPIB-PC User Manual
Using
HELP
The
HELP
function gives on-line information about
IBIC
and the
functions available within the environment. This facility provides a
quick reference for checking the syntax and function of the GPIB call.
Using
IBFIND
To execute any GPIB function, you must first use
IBFIND
to open the
device or board you wish to use. When the device or board is opened,
the symbolic name of that device or board is added to the prompt.
The following examples show
IBFIND
opening
dev1
(Example 1) and
gpib0
(Example 2). The user's inputs are italicized.
Example 1:
:ibfind dev1
dev1:
Example 2:
:ibfind gpib0
gpib0:
The name used with the
IBFIND
function must be a valid symbolic
name known by the handler. Both
dev1
and
gpib0
are default names
found in the handler.
IBIC
makes no distinction between uppercase
and lowercase.
