NEOFOX_NAME
Read-Only
DeviceGetParameter
This is the unique serial number that is programmed in to every NeoFox unit. Unfortunately, it cannot be read through the
serial interface. To read this parameter from the DLL, call DeviceGetParameter and the serial number will be populated into
the szText buffer. The serial number cannot be set through the DLL.

The 0-5V Lower Bound parameter is one of the 0-5V analog output settings. The value of this particular parameter sets the
lower bound value for the following formula, which determines the 0-5 Volt analog output voltage. More information about
this parameter and how to set up the analog outputs is available in the user manual.
Output (Volts) = ( Source Value – Lower Bound Value ) / (Upper Bound Value – Lower Bound Value) * 5 Volts

The 0-5V Upper Bound parameter is one of the 0-5V analog output settings. The value of this particular parameter sets the
upper bound value for the following formula, which determines the 0-5 Volt analog output voltage. More information about
this parameter and how to set up the analog outputs is available in the user manual.
Output (Volts) = ( Source Value – Lower Bound Value ) / (Upper Bound Value – Lower Bound Value) * 5 Volts

The 4-20mA Lower Bound parameter is one of the 4-20mA analog output settings. The value of this particular parameter
sets the lower bound value for the following formula, which determines the 4-20mA analog output current. More
information about this parameter and how to set up the analog outputs is available in the user manual.
Output (mA) =[16mA*(Source Value – Lower Bound Value) / (Upper Bound Value – Lower Bound Value)]+4mA
