IOtech GPIB Command Associated MCC GPIB 488.2 Command(s)
SendCmd SendCmds
Syntax
SendCmd INT WINAPI SendCmd(DevHandleT devHandle,
LPBYTE commands, DWORD count);
SendCmds SendCmds (int board, char commands[],
unsigned long count)
Usage Notes
SendCmd is no longer to be used. The command was used to send a specified string of bytes
with Attention (ATN) asserted, causing the data to be interpreted as IEEE 488 command bytes.
SendCmds - This routine is useful in situations where specialized GPIB command sequences
are called for. In the following example, the GPIB board (at 0) simultaneously triggers the
GPIB devices at addresses 8 and 9 and quickly puts them in local mode.
Example:
SendCmds0, "\x3F\x40\x28\x29\x04\x01",6);
