bd/dev

0 = ignore EOS char during reads

non zero = terminate read when EOS char is received

IbaEOSwrt

bd/dev

0 = don’t assert EOI line when EOS char is sent

non zero = assert EOI line whenever EOS char is sent

IbaEOScmp

bd/dev

0 = 7 bit compare is used when checking for EOS char

non zero = 8 bit compare is used when checking for EOS
char

IbaEOSchar

bd/dev

0 = The current EOS char of board or device

IbaPP2

bd

0 = board is in remote parallel poll configuration

non zero = board is in local parallel poll configuration

character is received without EOI.

non zero = The END bit of ibsta is set when the EOS
character is received

IbaUnAddr

dev

0 = The untalk and unlisten (UNT, UNL) are not sent after
