Details
The binary representation of
data
indicates the output pattern to be written to the I/O port. For
example, a
data
value of 170 has a binary equivalent of 00000010101010. Lines 2, 4, 6, and 8 are
set high (1), and the other 10 lines are set low (0).
Write-protected lines are not changed.
The
reset()
function does not affect the present states of the digital I/O lines.
Use the
digio.writebit()
and
digio.writeport()
commands to control the output state of
the synchronization line when trigger operation is set to
digio.TRIG_BYPASS
.
Example
digio.writeport(255)
Sets digital I/O Lines 1 through 8 high (binary
00000011111111).

digio.writeprotect
This attribute contains the write-protect mask that protects bits from changes from the
digio.writebit()
and
digio.writeport()
functions. This attribute is not available on the Models 2604B/2614B/2634B.

Usage

digio.writeprotect =
mask
mask
Sets the value that specifies the bit pattern for write-protect
Details
Bits that are set to one cause the corresponding line to be write-protected.
The binary equivalent of
mask
indicates the mask to be set for the I/O port. For example, a mask
value of 7 has a binary equivalent of 00000000000111. This mask write-protects lines 1, 2, and 3.
Example
digio.writeprotect = 15
Write-protects lines 1, 2, 3, and 4.
