Using and Troubleshooting the GPIB-VXI/CConsModePurpose: Enable or disable the console data mode. Command Syntax: ConsMode <Boolean> Action: If <Boolean> is TRUE, ConsMode enables console format responses for the command source issuing the command. If <Boolean> is FALSE, ConsMode disables console format responses for the command source issuing the command. The console response mode applies only to the response path connected to the ConsMode command source. For example, disabling the console response mode from the GPIB port does not affect the response mode on the serial port. From IBIC you can enable the console data mode by issuing the following command:
Ibrd 100
To illustrate the difference between enabling and disabling the console data mode, the A24MemMap? command will be sent to the GPIB-VXI/C. The response to this command will be read both with the console data mode option enabled and disabled. Console data mode enabled:
Console data mode disabled:
Observe that now the response is displayed in a much simpler form. With console data mode enabled, the response to the command contains a brief description of the output. |
