NAME

ipoke − SICL utility for writing to memory locations

SYNOPSIS

ipoke [-v] [-?] [-b] [-w] [-l] <sym_name> <map_space> <offset> <value>

DESCRIPTION

Ipoke, is the SICL utility for writing to memory locations on interfaces that support mapping.  The ipoke utility will write the contents of the value parameter to the specified memory location. 
 
The sym_name is the SICL symbolic name of the interface.  The interface must support mapping, such as VXI. 
 
The map_space is the map area that you would like to write to.  Currently the only interfaces supported are VXI and MXI.  The valid map spaces are A16, A24, A32, VXIDEV, and EXTEND.  See the SICL documentation for a description of these mappings. 
 
The offset is the offset, in bytes, from the beginning of the mapped space to the location that is to be written. 

The parameter definitions follow. 

v Turns on verbose mode. 

?  Prints the usage of the ipoke program. 

b Specifies that the register size is a byte (8 bits). 

w Specifies that the register size is a word (16 bits, default). 

l Specifies that the register size is a long (32 bits).
