Find Equivalent command to RESUME in IOTech 488 card

Hi All,

 

I am in the process of converting a DOS 16 bit application that used IOTech PCMCIA GPIB Card to NI PCMCIA GPIB Card.

The software is written in Turbo C++ 3.0 and is using a command called RESUME (see page III-345 in the attached manual) that is not listed in the NI documentation.

It is my understanding that IOTech card was using 488 version of the protocol and that the NI is using 488.2 version of the protocol.

In the code I see that the developer is calling as follows:

Local(ieee);
Resume(ieee,0);

Where ieee is the handle to the GPIB card.

Can someone explain what is the functionality that is being achieved here and is there a matching command in NI for resume ?

This looks like an open of the IEEE card, not needed for NI, but I'm not familiar with TurboC
