HP E1433A Interrupt Behavior

Interrupt Setup

The HP E1433A VXI module can be programmed to interrupt a host computer using the VME interrupt lines. VME provides seven such lines, and the HP E1433A module can be told to use any one of them (see e1432_set_interrupt_priority).

The HP 1432A can interrupt the host computer in response to different events. You can specify a mask of events on which to interrupt. This mask is created by OR-ing together the various conditions that the you want.

The following table, copied from the e1432_set_interrupt_mask manual page, shows the conditions that can cause an interrupt:

Interrupt Mask Bit Definitions
Define (in e1432.h)	Description
E1432_IRQ_MEAS_WARNING	Non-fatal measurement warning
E1432_IRQ_BLOCK_READY	Block of data ready in FIFO
E1432_IRQ_MEAS_STATE_CHANGE	Measurement state machine changed state
E1432_IRQ_TRIGGER	Trigger ready for transfer to other modules
E1432_IRQ_OVERLOAD_CHANGE	Overload status changed
E1432_IRQ_MEAS_ERROR	FIFO overflow
E1432_IRQ_TACHS_AVAIL	Raw tach-times available
