waitcomplete functions

This function waits for all overlapped commands to complete.

waitcomplete()

Function

Wait for all overlapped commands to complete.

Usage

waitcomplete([group])

group: Optional TSP-Link

group on which to wait.

Remarks

This function will wait for all overlapped operations within given group to complete. A

group number may only be specified from the master node. If no group is specified,

the local group will be used. If zero is given for the group, this function will wait for all

nodes in the system.

NOTE Any nodes that are not assigned to a group (their group number is zero) will

be considered to be part of the master's group.

This function will wait for all previously started overlapped commands to complete.

Currently the Series 3700 has no overlapped commands implemented. However,

other TSP

-enabled products like the Series 3700 has overlapped commands.

Therefore, when the Series 3700 is a TSP master to a slave device with overlapped

commands, use this function to wait until all overlapped operations are completed.
