Type:
SCSI function
Syntax:

Purpose:
Use rcdia to command the GPIB-SCSI-A to process the

Remarks:
The GPIB-SCSI-A uses the following Command Descriptor
Block to command the Target to process rcdia. Notice how
the parameter to the rcdia command is used in the creation
of the Command Descriptor Block.
Byte
The Allocation Length in the Command Descriptor block
above is given as a parameter to the rcdia command. The
LUN corresponds to the last value assigned with the lun
command. The VCB corresponds to the last value assigned
with the vcb command.
The Allocation Length is the number of bytes that the initiator
has allocated for returned rcdia data. An Allocation Length
of 0 indicates that no data shall be transferred. This condition
is not considered an error.
