M8 will generate a Service Request when the Digital488 self-test fails.
Refer to the Test command (T0) description for details on self-tests.
M16 will generate a Service Request when the Digital488 has completed the
execution of a set of commands from the bus controller. This is used by the
controller to assure the completion of a set of commands before sending a
subsequent set of commands.
Example:
CLEAR 718
reset the Digital488
OUTPUT 718;"M4X"
select SRQ on Bus error
OUTPUT 718;"F7X"
send an invalid bus command.
Note: ERROR and SRQ LEDs should illuminate
CLEAR 718
reset the Digital488
OUTPUT 718;"M1XM4X"
select SRQ on Bus error and SRQ on Service input.
OUTPUT 718;"M5X"
This has the same effect as the command above
where M1X plus M4X equals M5X.
