TriggerList
Triggers multiple GPIB devices
Syntax
C void TriggerList(int board, int addresslist[])
Parameters
board is an integer which identifies the GPIB board to be used for this operation. In most
applications, this value is 0.
addresslist is an array of GPIB addresses, terminated by the value NOADDR . These
addresses identify the devices to be triggered. If this array contains only NOADDR , all
previously addressed listeners are triggered.
Returns
ibsta will contain a 16-bit status word as described in Appendix B, IBSTA .
iberr will contain an error code, if an error occurred.
Usage Notes
Use Trigger to trigger only one device.
Example
This example triggers two devices simultanously. The devices are connected to board 0 and
are at GPIB addresses 6 and 7.
C short addresslist[3] = {6, 7, NOADDR};
TriggerList(0, addresslist);
