USAGE ♦ ♦ ♦
SYNTAX RQnn
PARAMETERS
Description nn [ int ] - interrupt number
Range nn - 0 to 31
Units nn - none
Defaults nn missing: 0
out of range: error 7, PARAMETER OUT OF RANGE
DESCRIPTION This command generates an interrupt service request to the host computer. The
parameter nn is used to identify the RQ command what generated the interrupt.
Upon receiving the interrupt, the host computer interrupt service routine should
perform an IEEE 488 serial poll. If the interrupt was as a result of the RQ
command, then bit 6 of the response is 1 and the lower five bits equal the
parameter nn.
This command can be used to notify the host computer of the progress or flow of
command execution in the motion controller.
RETURNS None
REL. COMMANDS SA - set device address
