IbaEOSrd
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

bd
Current T1 timing delay 1 = Normal (2 us), 2 = High
Speed (500 ns), 3 = Very High Speed (350 ns)
IbaDMA
bd
0 = The interface does not use DMA for GPIB transfers
non zero = The interface uses DMA for GPIB transfers

bd
0 = The END bit of ibsta is not set when the EOS
character is received without EOI.
non zero = The END bit of ibsta is set when the EOS
character is received
