Parallel

Poll

as to

which data bit they are to assert in response to a

Parallel

Poll

5.8 MORE ON SERVICE REQUESTS

Most of the commands covered, both uniline and multiline, are the responsibility

of the

Active Controller

to send and the bus devices to recognize. Most of these

happen routinely by the interface and are totally transparent to the system

programmer. Other commands are used directly by the user to provide optimum

system control. Of the uniline commands,

SRQ

is very important to the test system

and the software designer has easy access to this line by most devices. Service

Request is the method by which a bus device can signal to the

Controller

that an

event has occurred. It is similar to an interrupt in a microprocessor based system.

Most intelligent bus peripherals have the ability to assert

SRQ

. A DMM might

assert it when its measurement is complete, if its input is overloaded or for any of an

assortment of reasons. A power supply might

SRQ

if its output has current limited.

This is a powerful bus feature that removes the burden from the

System Controller

to periodically inquire, "Are you done yet?". Instead, the

Controller

says, "Do what I

told you to do and let me know when you're done" or "Tell me when something is

wrong."

Since

SRQ

is a single line command, there is no way for the

Controller

determine which device requested the service without additional information. This

information is provided by the multiline commands for

Serial Poll

and

Parallel Poll
