NAME
     gpinit - initialize GPIB

SYNOPSIS
     gpinit -a
     gpinit device

DESCRIPTION
     Gpinit sets the named devices to their stored configuration
     (set by gpconf(1)).  Gpinit -a is invoked during system
     startup to reset all GPIB devices to their previous
     configuration.

EXAMPLES
     Initialize the interface in slot 2 and attached instruments.


               $ gpinit gpib2
               gpib2 slot 2 addr 0 eom EOI sc tcs
               dm5010 slot 2 addr 16 eom EOI poll
               fg5010 slot 2 addr 24 eom EOI poll

FILES
     /etc/gpibconf            current configuration

     /dev/gpibn               GPIB interface device

     /dev/gpidn               GPIB configuration device

     /dev/instrument          GPIB instruments

DIAGNOSTICS
     device slot n addr n ...
                    The named device has been initialized.

     device : file or device already exists
                    There is already a (non-GPIB) device or file
                    by that name.  Use gprm(1) and gpconf(1) to
                    change the name.

     device slot n no interface
                    There is no GPIB interface card in the
                    specified slot.

     Other messages are system errors.  See intro(2) for more
     information on these.

RETURN VALUE
