Description
daqAdcTransferGetStat allows you to retrieve the current state of an ADC acquisition transfer.
The active parameter will indicate the current state of the transfer in the form of a bit mask. Refer to the ADC Acquisition/Transfer
Active Flag Definitions (in the ADC Miscellaneous Definitions table) for valid bit-mask states.
The retCount parameter will return the total number of scans acquired in the current transfer if the transfer is in user-allocated buffer
mode or will return the total number of unread scans in the acquisition buffer if the transfer is in driver-allocated buffer mode. Refer to the
daqAdcTransferSetBuffer
function for more information on buffer allocation modes.
The transfer state and return count values will continue to be updated until any of the following occurs: The transfer count is satisfied, the
transfer is stopped (daqAdcStopTransfer), or the acquisition is disarmed (daqDisarm).
