RM Information Queries
These RM information queries are described in the following sections:
•
A24MemMap?
•
A32MemMap?
•
Cmdr?
•
CmdrTable?
•
Laddrs?
•
NumLaddrs?
•

Note
The system information commands (
NumLaddrs?
,
Laddrs?
,
CmdrTable?
,
A24MemMap?
, and
A32MemMap?
) return information about the known system. If
the GPIB-VXI/C is the system RM, it can access information about the entire system.
If it is not the RM, it has information only about itself and its immediate Servants.
The
Numladdrs?
query is used to find out how many devices there are in the system.
The number of devices could then be used by a control program to determine the allocation
size for an array that is to hold the logical addresses of each device.
The
Laddrs?
query returns a list of logical addresses for devices in the system.
The
RmEntry?
,
Srvnts?
,
Cmdr?
, and
StatusState?
queries return RM information for a
particular device.
The
CmdrTable?
query returns the system hierarchy table.
The
A24MemMap?
and
A32MemMap?
queries return the A24 and A32 memory
configuration lists.
