Comments
• Once the INIT command completes, the readings in shared memory
are available to any device. The readings at this time are in 32-bit
REAL format.
• When the shared memory state is on (MEM:VME:STAT ON), all
readings are stored in VME memory regardless of the number of
readings taken.
• The VME memory location and memory size can be specified in
decimal or hexadecimal. Configuration of the VME memory card
should be covered in the manual which came with the card.
• In this program, the readings retrieved from shared memory are
64-bit REAL numbers in the IEEE 488.2-1987 Definite Length
Arbitrary Block format. Page 58 contains an example which
describes the Arbitrary Block format and additional format
information is located in Chapter 4.
• When running HP BASIC, an array dimension can have no more
than 32767 elements. Thus, to store 200,000 readings, a
two-dimensional array is declared.
