Command Syntax

*WAI

Description

Prevents FlexOTO from executing any further commands or queries until all currently executing commands are completed. The *WAI command is similar to the *OPC? query as it also blocks the execution of the remote script until all pending operations are finished. *WAI is particularly useful if the host computer is connected to FlexOTO and one or more instruments. This command will not block the GPIB bus, allowing the computer to continue issuing commands to FlexOTO or an instrument that is not executing the *WAI command.
