IFC (Interface Clear): active LOW resets the interfaces of the instruments connec-
ted to the default setting.
ATN (Attention): active LOW signals the transmission of interface messages, inac-
tive HIGH signals the transmission of device messages.
SRQ (Service Request): active LOW enables the connected device to send a ser-
vice request to the controller.
REN (Remote Enable): active LOW permits switchover to remote control.
EOI (End or Identify): has two functions in connection with ATN:
– ATN=HIGH active LOW marks the end of data transmission.
– ATN=LOW active LOW triggers a parallel poll.
●
Handshake bus with three lines:
DAV (Data Valid): active LOW signals a valid data byte on the data bus.
NRFD (Not Ready For Data): active LOW signals that one of the connected devi-
ces is not ready for data transfer.
NDAC (Not Data Accepted): active LOW signals that the instrument connected is
accepting the data on the data bus.
