SPOLL
The Serial Poll command,
SPOLL
, performs a Serial Poll of bus devices and
responds with number from
0
to
255
representing the decimal equivalent of the eight-
bit device response. Serial Polls are normally performed in response to assertion of
the Service Request (SRQ) bus signal by some bus device. If
rsv
(DIO7, decimal
value 64) is set, then that device is signaling that it requires service. The meanings of
the other bits are device-specific.
If
SPOLL
is issued with multiple addresses specified, the Analyzer488 will
perform a serial poll on each device and send the output of each response to the serial
port with the serial output terminator(s) appended.
With no bus address specified, the
SPOLL
command returns the external SRQ
status. If the SRQ line is asserted, the Analyzer488 will return a "64". If it is not
asserted, the Analyzer488 will return a "0".
This command does not have a query option.
