Inherits from I/O Session class.
| Long Name | Description |
|---|---|
| GPIB Settings:Line REN State | Returns the current state of the GPIB REN (Remote ENable) interface line. Details |
| GPIB Settings:Line ATN State | Returns the current state of the GPIB ATN interface line. Details |
| Message Based Settings:Device Status Byte | Specifies the 488-style status byte of the local controller or device associated with this session. If you write this property and set bit 6 (0x40), this device or controller asserts a service request (SRQ) on the interface. Details |
| GPIB Settings:Addressed State | Returns whether the specified GPIB interface is not addressed (0), addressed to talk (1) or addressed to listen (2). Details |
| GPIB Settings:HS488 Cable Length | Specifies the total number of meters (1-15) of GPIB cable used in the specified GPIB interface. The value 0 means that HS488 is disabled. The value -1 means HS488 is not implemented. Details |
| GPIB Settings:Secondary Address | Returns the secondary address of the GPIB interface used by the given session. If the interface does not have a secondary address, the value of this property is 65535 (0xFFFF). Details |
| GPIB Settings:Primary Address | Returns the primary address of the GPIB interface used by the given session. Details |
| Message Based Settings:File Append Enable | Specifies whether VISA Read To File appends or overwrites (truncates) when opening a file. If this property is set to TRUE, VISA Read To File appends when opening a file. If this property is set to FALSE, VISA Read To File�overwrites (truncates) when opening a file. The default is FALSE. Details |
| General Settings:Allow DMA Transfers | Specifies whether I/O accesses should attempt to use DMA (TRUE) or Programmed I/O (FALSE). In some implementations, this property may have global effects even though it is documented as a local property. This behavior affects performance and not functionality. Details |
| GPIB Settings:System Controller State | Specifies whether the specified GPIB interface is currently the system controller. Details |
| Message Based Settings:IO Protocol | Specifies which protocol to use. In VXI, you can choose normal word serial or fast data channel. In GPIB, you can choose normal or high-speed HS-488 transfers. In serial, TCP/IP, or USB, you can choose normal transfers or 488.2-defined strings. In USBTMC, you can choose normal or vendor-specific transfers. The default is Normal. Details |
| GPIB Settings:Line NDAC State | Returns the current state of the GPIB NDAC interface line. Details |
| GPIB Settings:Line SRQ State | Returns the current state of the GPIB SRQ interface line. Details |
| GPIB Settings:CIC State | Returns whether the specified GPIB interface is currently CIC (Controller In Charge). Details |
| Message Based Settings:Termination Character | Specifies a character that, when read, causes a read operation to terminate. The termination character also must be enabled. This default is 0x0A (linefeed). Details |
| Message Based Settings:Termination Character Enable | Specifies whether a read operation terminates when it receives the termination character. The default is FALSE. Details |
| Message Based Settings:Send End Enable | Specifies whether to send an END indicator on the last byte of each write operation. This property is relevant only in VISA Write and related operations. The default is TRUE. Details |
