DEVCLEAR(3)

✨ NAME ✨

DevClear — bestie, it clears a device 💅

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

#include <gpib/ib.h>

void DevClear(int board_desc, Addr4882_t address);

---

🎀 DESCRIPTION 🎀

okay so picture this: you got a GPIB situation and one of your devices is acting up, being messy, and you just need it cleared. That's literally what DevClear() is for. 💖

Here's the tea: DevClear() makes the interface board — the one you point at with board_desc — send the clear command to the GPIB address you drop into address. Simple. Iconic. No cap. ✨

but bestie, if you wanna clear MULTIPLE devices all at once?? don't be out here calling this in a loop like a rookie 😭 use DevClearList() instead. that's the move. 👑
