Some of the Word Serial commands defined in the VXIbus
specification require a response from the Message-Based device,
while other commands do not. To distinguish between the two
types of Word Serial commands, and to avoid confusion between
Word Serial commands and 1260-00C local commands and
queries, the following terminology will be used in this section:
a. Word Serial Command - A VXI-defined Word Serial
command that does not require a response from the
Message-Based device.
b. Word Serial Query - A VXI-defined Word Serial command
that requires a response from the Message-Based device.
c. Command - A 1260-00C command, as defined in this
chapter.
d. Query - A 1260-00C query, as defined in this chapter.
The WScmd
command can be used to send a Word Serial
command to a Message-Based device. The
WScmd?
query is
used to send a Word Serial query to the Message-Based device,
and to automatically read and return the device's response.
The WScmd
can be used to send a Word Serial query to a
Message-Based device. Because
WScmd
does not read the query
response, the intermediate state of the device can be examined
using the
RespReg?
query, after which the response can be read
using the
WSresp?
query.
The WSstr
command can be used to send device-dependent
commands and queries to a device. If the string sent to the device
was a device-dependent query, use the
WSstr?
query to read the
device's response.
The
ProtErr?
query sends a Read Protocol Error Word Serial
query to a device and reports the error response. The
RespReg?
query returns the value of a device's response register.
ProtErr?
Purpose:
Send a Read Protocol Error Word Serial query to a
Message-Based device.
Query
Syntax:
ProtErr? <log addr>
Action:
Read Protocol Error query is sent to a
Message-Based device. Response is read and
