Overview
Access mode is one of the most commonly edited connection attributes. It specifies the type of event that is being requested from the connected provider object and can be one of the following types (depending on the provider object type):
- Read - request for a transient/arbitrated buffer to read from
- Write - request for a transient/arbitrated buffer to write to
- Read/Write - request for a transient buffer to read from but allowing writes back to it
- Update - request for an arbitrated buffer to update
- Request - request from a semaphore
- Signal - signal a semaphore
- Notify - request notification when an arbitrated buffer changes
Access mode is shown visually on the diagram using arrows:
