Configuring Special Tags

In addition to I/O Tags, this Driver also supports a few Special Tags that allow an application to trigger features not related to data reading or writing. Unlike I/O Tags, Special Tags do not reference Driver operations in numerical configuration. The next topics describe in details all supported Special Tags:

·Forcing a Wait Silence

·Reading the Last Exception Code
