Non-Slot 0 Message-Based device and Slot 0 Message-Based device
operation.
Slot 0 Message-Based Device Configuration
Follow these steps to configure the GPIB-VXI/C for Slot 0 Message-Based
operation. Refer to Table 2-14.
1.
Enable the VXIbus Slot 0 functions.
2.
Set the model code of the GPIB-VXI/C to be configured for Slot 0
operation using the nonvolatile configuration mode.
3.
Set the logical address to a non-zero value with an appropriate Servant
area size.
If the logical address is set to FFh in nonvolatile configuration (the DIP
switch cannot set the logical address to FFh), the GPIB-VXI/C will
participate in dynamic configuration. Otherwise, the GPIB-VXI/C is a
static configuration device.
