ibnotify is an asyncronous wait callback. You can wait for an SRQ to be generated. If you are using device-side calls and automatic serial polling is enabled, you would ibnotify for RQS. If you are using board-level calls, 488.2-style calls, or have automatic serial polling disabled, you woud ibnotify for SRQI. From within the callback, you would perform an ibrsp to retrieve the status byte.
