To start talking to an instrument call open with the host you want to connect to (ip or hostname) and whether you want to lock it right away. You can then call the object methods to do stuff. For interrupts to work you must call vxi_startinterruptserver before enabling interrupts. You only need to do this once even if you have multiple instruments. VXI-11 has mixed client and server roles (with interrupts the client becomes the server). Starting the interrupt server creates an RPC server on the client that the instruments can connect to. Return codes work like this; 1 - is a success 0 - means the request failed locally, the state inside the client is incorrect, i.e. calling to enable interrupts before creating the channel or that the server couldn't be contacted < 0 - Any negative value is the negated VXI-11 error code from the server The only exceptions to this are the read and write methods 0 - Error as above or zero bytes read/written > 0 - Number of bytes read/written =head2 EXPORT vxi_startinterruptserver vxi_stopinterruptserver vxi_open vxi_wait_for_interrupt =head1 SEE ALSO The vxi-11 spec. =head1 AUTHOR daniel, Edaniel@E =head1 COPYRIGHT AND LICENSE Copyright (C) 2013 by daniel This library is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the same terms as Perl itself, either Perl version 5.14.2 or, at your option, any later version of Perl 5 you may have available. =cut
