KEYWORD

Keywords are instructions recognized by a decoder within the TMA 4882-27 controller, referred
to as a “parser.” Each keyword describes a command function; all keywords used by the TMA
4882-27 controller are listed in Figure 3-2.

Each keyword has a long form and a short form. For the long form the word is spelled out com-
pletely (e.g. STATUS, OUTPUT, VOLTAGE, and TRIGGER are long form keywords). For the
short form only the first three or four letters of the long form are used (e.g., STAT, VOLT, OUTP,
and TRIG). The rules governing short form keywords are presented in Table 3-6.

You must use the rules described in Table 3-6 when using keywords. Using an arbitrary short
form such as ENABL for ENAB (ENABLE) or IMME for IMM (IMMEDIATE) will result in an error.
Regardless of which form chosen, you must include all the letters required by that form.
