Subsystem Programmatic Interface (SPI) Standard Definitions
SPI standard definitions that have a specific meaning for IPB events are listed in
Table 4-2.
SPI standard definitions are described in detail in the SPI Programming Manual.
Note. The event-message header tokens are described in Section 2, Header and Common
Tokens.
Note. All definitions are shown in DDL format using hyphens (-) as separators. If you are
programming in TAL or TACL, substitute the circumflex symbol (^) for the hyphens. If you are
programming in Pascal or C, substitute the underscore symbol (_) for the hyphens. For a quick
explanation of DDL, see the SPI Programming Manual
