Selecting one of the numeric options programs the GPIB-410 hardware
to regulate the source handshake to an approximation of the requested
speed. Selecting
MAXIMUM
disables the hardware timers and allows the
handshake to proceed at the fastest rate possible.
Note:
Because of other configuration variables such as host processor
speed and DMA vs. PIO Pattern Generator operation, the actual
source handshake rate observed may be less than requested.
