Turbo PMAC/PMAC2 Software Reference
Turbo PMAC On-line Command Specification 383
 the optional second{constant} must be at least as great as the first {constant} – it represents
the number of the end of the range;
P{constant},{constant},{constant}
where:
 the first {constant} is an integer from 0 to 8190 representing the number of the first P-variable;
 the second {constant} is an integer from 1 to 8191 representing the number P-variables whose
value is to be reported;
 the third {constant} is an integer from 1 to 8191 representing the numerical spacing between each
P-variable whose value is to be reported;
This command causes Turbo PMAC to report the current value of the specified P-variable, or range or set
of P-variables.
Example:
P1 ; Host asks for value
25 ; Turbo PMAC responds

P{data}={expression}
Function: Assign a value to a P-variable.
Scope: Global
Syntax: P{data}={expression}
where:
 {data} is a constant, or an expression in parentheses, for an integer value from 0 to 8191
representing the P-variable number;
 {expression} contains the value to be given to the specified P-variable
P{constant}..{constant}={constant}
where:
 the first {constant} is an integer from 0 to 8190 representing the number of the first P-variable;
 the second {constant} is an integer from 1 to 8191 representing the number of the last P-variable;
it must be at least as great as the first {constant}
 the final {constant} contains the value to be given to the specified range of P-variables
P{constant},{constant},{constant}={constant}
where:
 the first {constant} is an integer from 0 to 8190 representing the number of the first P-variable;
 the second {constant} is an integer from 1 to 8191 representing the number P-variables whose
value is to be set;
 the third {constant} is an integer from 1 to 8191 representing the numerical spacing between each
P-variable whose value is to be set;
