Use the commands in the following table to perform basic steady-state digital I/O operations; for
example, you can program the 2470 to read and write to a specific TSP-Link synchronization line or to
the entire port.
TSP-Link commands
Command
Description
(on page 14-261)
Clears the event detector for a trigger
(on page 14-262)
Indicates which trigger edge controls the trigger
event detector for a trigger line
(on page 14-263)
Indicates if the event detector ignored an event
while in the detected state
(on page 14-264)
Waits for a trigger
trigger.tsplinkout[N].assert()
(on page 14-264) Simulates the occurrence of the trigger and
generates the corresponding trigger event
(on page 14-265)
Defines the trigger output with output logic for a
trigger line
trigger.tsplinkout[N].pulsewidth
Sets the length of time that the trigger line is
asserted for output triggers
trigger.tsplinkout[N].release()
(on page
Releases a latched trigger on the given TSP-Link
trigger line
trigger.tsplinkout[N].stimulus
Specifies the event that causes the
synchronization line to assert a trigger
(on page 14-269)
The group number of the TSP-Link node
(on page 14-270)
Initializes all instruments and enclosures in the
TSP-Link system
(on page 14-271)
Defines the trigger operation of a TSP-Link line
as digital in or out or trigger in or out
(on page 14-272)
Resets some of the TSP-Link trigger attributes to
their defaults
(on page 14-273)
Reads or writes the digital state of a TSP-Link
synchronization line
(on page 14-273)
Reads the node number assigned to the master
node
(on page 14-274)
Defines the node number
Reads the TSP-Link synchronization lines as a
digital I/O port
Describes the TSP-Link online state
Writes to all TSP-Link synchronization lines as a
digital I/O port
