viAssertIntrSignal

This function is part of the VISA standard but is not supported by Keysight VISA (in either Windows or Linux). Attempting to use this function would result in an error.

Syntax

viAssertIntrSignal(ViSession vi, ViInt16 mode, ViUInt32 statusID);

Description

Asserts the specified device interrupt or signal. This operation can be used to assert a device interrupt condition. In VXI, for example, this can be done with either a VXI signal or a VXI interrupt. On certain bus types, the statusID parameter may be ignored.

Parameters

Name	Dir	Type	Description
vi	IN	ViSession	Unique logical identifier to a session.
mode	IN	ViInt16	This specifies how to assert the interrupt. See the Description section for actual values.
statusID	IN	ViUInt32	This is the status value to be presented during an interrupt acknowledge cycle.

Special Values for mode Parameter

mode	Action Description
VI_ASSERT_IRQ1 - VI_ASSERT_IRQ7	VXI/VME IRQ line. This uses the standard VXI/VME ROAK (release on acknowledge) interrupt mechanism rather than the older VME RORA (release on register access) mechanism.
VI_ASSERT_SIGNAL	Send the notification via a VXI signal.
VI_ASSERT_USE_ASSIGNED	Use whatever notification method that has been assigned to the local device.
