Details
This setting determines if the instrument sends an abort message when it attempts to connect to a
TSP-enabled instrument using the
tspnet.connect()
function.
When you send the abort command on an interface, it causes any other active interface on that
instrument to close. If you do not send an abort command (or if
tspnet.tsp.abortonconnect
is
set to 0) and another interface is active, connecting to a TSP-enabled remote instrument results in a
connection. However, the instrument will not respond to subsequent reads or executes because
control of the instrument is not obtained until an abort command has been sent.
