waitcomplete
function
This function waits for all overlapped commands to complete.
Function
Waits for all overlapped commands to complete.
Usage
waitcomplete([group])
group
Identifies the number of the group to wait for
overlapped operations to complete.
Remarks
• The master node is the only node that can specify a group number with the
waitcomplete
command.
• If a TSP-Link group number is not provided, the local group number is used.
• If a 0 (zero) is used for the TSP-Link group number, this function waits for all nodes on the
TSP-Link network.
• Use this function to wait for a specific group to complete all overlapped operations.
NOTE
Any node that is not assigned to a group (indicates the group
number is 0) is considered part of the master group.
Using this function without a group number waits for overlapped
operations to complete on the local group.
Example
waitcomplete()
Waits for all nodes in the local group.
waitcomplete(G)
Waits for all nodes in group G.
waitcomplete(0)
Waits for all nodes on the TSP-Link network.

This function will retrieve from non-volatile memory the string that is associated with
the string name.
