initializing the Device

IEEE488.2 stipulates three levels of system initialization: initialization of the bus, message and device.

Table 2-6 Types of System Initialization

Section 2 GPIB Interface

Level

Type of Initialization

Outline

1

Initialization of the bus

Initializes the functions of all the interfaces connected to the bus with the IFC

message from the controller.

2

Initialization of the message

Disables the function to report to the controller that the initialization of the

exchange of messages among all the devices on GPIB and relevant operations

are completed by DCL, one of the GPIB bus commands, and that the initial­

ization of the exchange of messages among specified devices on GPIB and

relevant operations are completed by SCL, also one of the GPIB bus com­

mands.

3

Initialization of the device

Returns the device to the original state unique to the device by *RST, regard­

less of the status during past usage.

2.6.1 Initializing the Bus

IFC:

Initialization of the bus by the IFC statement

Function:

Switches the IFC line into an active state for about 100 |is and initializes the interface function of all the

devices connected to the GPIB bus line. IFC can be transmitted only by the system controller.

2.6.2 Initializing the Message

DCL and SDC: Initialization of the exchange of messages by the DCL and SDC bus commands

Initializes the exchange of messages for all the devices on GPIB or specified devices on GPIB.

Functions:

Initialization of the message exchange is aimed at setting preparations to enable the controller to send

new instructions in the event that sections related to the message exchange in devices are set in a state

inappropriate for the control to be executed from the controller because, for example, other programs

were executed earlier, although changing the panel setting is not required.

DCL:

Initializes the message exchange among all the devices on GPIB.

SDC:

Initializes the message exchange among specified devices.
