Details
When this attribute is enabled, the IEEE Std 488.2 common commands generate prompts if
prompting is enabled with the
localnode.prompts
attribute. If
localnode.prompts4882
is
enabled, limit the number of
*trg
commands sent to a running script to 50 regardless of the setting
of the
localnode.prompts
attribute.
When this attribute is disabled, IEEE Std 488.2 common commands will not generate prompts. When
using the
*trg
command with a script that executes
trigger.wait()
repeatedly, disable
prompting to avoid problems associated with the command interface input queue filling.
Example
localnode.prompts4882 = 0
Disables IEEE Std 488.2 common command prompting.
