Text of error message

The Operating Mode (C or P) indicates whether or not the Micro488/EX is the

Active Controller. If the Micro488/EX Passes Control to another device, then the
Operating Mode indicator will change from "C" to "P". When the Micro488/EX
regains control, then the indicator will again be "C". If the Micro488/EX is not the
System Controller, then it will initially be a Peripheral and thus the indicator will be
"P". It will, of course, become "C" when the Micro488/EX receives control from the
Active Controller.

The Bus Address is the IEEE bus device address assigned to the Micro488/EX by

the internal hardware switch.

The Address Change (G0, G1) indicator is set whenever the Micro488/EX

transitions from the idle state to a Talker or Listener, or from a Talker or Listener state
to an idle state. It will not indicate when a change is made from a listener to a talker or
a talker to a listener. The address change is reset when STATUS 1 is read.
