Software Product Description
PRODUCT NAME: INSTRUMENT Bus Subroutines, Version 1.1

DESCRIPTION:

TRAINING CREDITS:

The INSTRUMENT Bus Subroutines (IBS) runs under
the RT -11 Operating System.

None

I BS consists of:
• A library of FORTRAN callable subroutines to support the IB11 and IBV11-A interface from an IEEE488-1975 General-Purpose Instrument Bus
• A special device handler called by routines in the
library
IBS allows the user to control the IEEE Bus through
commands that control data transfer via the IB11 or
I BV11-A. It also allows the user to specify a FORTRAN
completion routine that will be entered asynchronously when any device on the IEEE bus asserts the Service
Request Bus Line. This software supports the IB11 or
IBV11 only when it is the system control and controllerin-charge of the IEEE Bus.
The Extended Memory (XM) monitor cannot be used
while the instrument bus routines are being used.
MINIMUM HARDWARE REQUIRED:
Any valid RT-11 system configuration with at least 32K
bytes of memory, and one of the following:
IBV11-A IEEE bus for sub-UNIBUS
IB11 IEEE bus for UNIBUS
OPTIONAL HARDWARE:
Up to a system total of eight IB11 or IBV11-A boards
Each interface operates as the system controller-incharge; thus, there can be only one IBV11-A per IEEE
bus.

SUPPORT CATEGORY:
CUSTOMER SUPPORTED
