1.3.2.35.1 getProcInfo
int getProcInfo (ProcInfoData *val, int index, char* ErrMsg, unsigned short *len,
BOOL TCP);
Description
This function gets the following status, sequentially, in the structure
ProcInfoData. It is essentially used to monitor the crystal state.
Sensor status . . . . . . . . . . . . 1 byte

0 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 0 = Good crystal, 1 = Failed crystal
1 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 0 = Not switching, 1 = Switching crystal
2 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 0 = Good reading, 1 = Invalid reading
State . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1 byte
Active Sensor . . . . . . . . . . . . 1 byte

Arguments
ProcInfoData *val:
This structure is first filled with all the data mentioned above in the order
described.
int index:
Since this function will be used for monitoring data vs. time, this command
(The S0 command, see the User’s Guide document) needs to have a timer
tick (1 byte, 0 to 255) tagged on to it. For example, tagging a 5 tells the
XTC/3 system to send data acquired at timer tick 5.
char* ErrMsg
unsigned short *len
BOOL TCP
