Series 3700 System Switch/Multimeter Reference Manual  Section 13: Instrument Control Library (ICL) 
3700S-901-01 Rev. C / July 2008  13-307 
tspnet.tsp.abortonconnect 
Remarks 
This setting determines if the Series 3700 sends abort() when it attempts to 
connect using tspnet.connect() (on page 10-5) to a TSP
TM
-enabled device. The 
default value is tspnet.TRUE (or non-zero). 
Sending the abort() command on connection causes any other active interfaces 
being used on that device to close to ensure you have obtained access to the remote 
device. 
Connecting to a TSP device without issuing an abort() command, or when 
tspnet.tsp.abortonconnect (on page 10-14) is set to tspnet.FALSE, can 
result in the Series 3700 suspending operation until it receives a response back from 
the device or until a timeout error generates. 
Errors: 
  <none> 
Example 
tspnet.tsp.abortonconnect = tspnet.FALSE 
tspnet.tsp.rbtablecopy() 
Function 
Copies a reading buffer synchronous table from a device. 
Usage 
<array> = tspnet.tsp.rbtablecopy(<connection id>, <name>, 
[<start index>, <end index>]) 
connection id: Integer value used as a handle for other tspnet commands 
name: Parameter name from a listed group 
start index: Integer start value 
end index: Integer end value 
Remarks 
This convenience command reads the data from a reading buffer on a remote device 
and returns an array of numbers or a string representing the data. The name argument 
identifies the reading buffer name and synchronous table to copy. The optional start 
index and end index specify the portion of the reading buffer to read. If no index is 
specified, the entire buffer will be copied. 
This command is limited to transferring 50,000 readings at a time. 
Errors: 
  Invalid Specified Connection 
  Write Failed, Timeout 
  Write Failed 
  Read Failed, Timeout 
  Read Failed, Aborted 
  Read Failed 
  Invalid Reading Buffer Table 
  Invalid Index Range 
  Out of Memory 
  Remote Error, <remote error generated by command>
