1.3.2.7 getGenParameter
int getGenParameter (unsigned long *val, int index, char* ErrMsg, unsigned short
*len, BOOL TCP);
Description
GetGenParameter gets the value of a General Parameter from the instrument.
Arguments:
unsigned long *val:
A 4 byte long that will contain the value of a General Parameter from the
instrument.
int index:
The index of the General Parameter as described in the User’s Guide
document.
char* ErrMsg
unsigned short *len
BOOL TCP
Example
// This example gets the "Recorder Mode".
// The index of this parameter is 9.
#include "XTC3Lib.h"
void main()
{
if(StartSocket()==0)
printf("Socket could not be initialized.");
if(!ConnectSocket("10.211.70.209"))
printf("Socket could not be connected!");
char ErrStr[256];
memset(ErrStr,0,256);
unsigned long val = 0;
// 0 = Rate 1 = Thickness
// 2 = Power 3 = Rate Deviation
unsigned short len = 0;
char* Response[] =
{
"Rate",
"Thickness",
"Power",
"Rate Deviation"
};
BOOL TCP = TRUE; // TCP/IP comm
getGenParameter(&val, 9, ErrStr, &len, TCP);
