Syntax
int MVIcip_WriteConnected(MVIHANDLE handle, MVIHANDLE connHandle, BYTE
*dataBuf, WORD offset,WORD dataSize );
Parameters
handle
handle returned by previous call to MVIcip_Open
connHandle
handle of open connection
dataBuf
pointer to data to be written
offset
offset of byte to begin writing
dataSize
number of bytes of data to write
Description
This function is used by an application to update data being sent on the open
connection specified by connHandle.
Handle
must be a valid handle returned from MVIcip_Open.
ConnHandle
must be a handle passed by the connect_proc callback function.
Offset
is the offset into the connected data buffer to begin writing.
DataBuf
is a pointer to a buffer containing the data to be written.
DataSize
is the number of bytes of data to be written.
Note: For Assembly Instance 1, the first 4 bytes of the ControlLogix input image table are
overwritten with "FF" (hex) when the connection is not open or broken.
Return Value
MVI_SUCCESS
data was updated successfully
MVI_ERR_NOACCESS
handle does not have access
MVI_ERR_BADPARAM
connHandle or dataSize is invalid
Example
MVIHANDLE handle;
MVIHANDLE connHandle;
BYTE buffer[128];
// Write 128 bytes to the connected data buffer
MVIcip_WriteConnected(handle, connHandle, buffer, 0, 128 );
