Re: [Linux-gpib-general] [EXTERNAL] Re: GPIB as a pure slave

[Stefan O. <ste...@jh...>]

  Hi, Dave

Thanks a lot for Your effort.

I have tested Your program, but it is almost the same as I have used. 
The result are as follows:

root@imx8mm-var-dart:/home/stefan/bin#
root@imx8mm-var-dart:/home/stefan/bin# ./slave_test
[  124.896503] tnt4882: minor 0 read timed out
[  124.900712] tnt4882: read timed out
Got hello
[  127.968496] tnt4882: write timed out
error: ibwrt fail
  - EABO 6: Operation aborted
root@imx8mm-var-dart:/home/stefan/bin# ./slave_test
[  187.105354] tnt4882: minor 0 read timed out
[  187.109563] tnt4882: read timed out
Got *IDN?

[  190.177371] tnt4882: write timed out
error: ibwrt fail
  - EABO 6: Operation aborted
root@imx8mm-var-dart:/home/stefan/bin#

READING:

Interesting is that during "ibrd" even read timeout is coming from 
TNT4882, the data are read OK. I am using reading per char, till END or 
END-OF-STRING => "\n"  and I am getting no time-out during reading.

WRITTING:

First "ibwrt" is always time-outed, the second also, but data are 
delivered, as I am already described. Therefore I am using short TIMO ( 
e.g. 10ms ) for ibwrt, and on the receiver device is TIMO set to 3s, and 
I am getting the data. Of course from second "ibwrt".

Stefan.
