5.2.8.5 SMADCSetSensorType
Syntax
error_code SMADCSetSensorType(u_int8 PortNr, u_int8
channel, u_int16 sensorCode);
Description
This function checks if an SM-PT100 board is fitted on the specified port, if
the channel is valid, if the sensorCode is known and sets the gain, precision
and mode to their default values for the type of sensor connected.
Input
u_int8 PortNr
Port number om module to set
(from 0 to 10)
u_int8 channel
Number of specified channel (0 to 3)
u_int16 sensorCode
Code of the sensor (a list of PEP
defined sensor types can be found in the
file linear.h)
Output
error_code SUCCESS
E_MNF
If wrong type of module or no module
is fitted on the selected port
E_PARAM
If wrong channel number is specified
E_BTYP
If sensor type is not known
or standard OS-9 error code (refer to the OS-9
Technical Manual Error Codes Section).
Example
RetVal = SMADCSetSensorType(0, 1, PT100);
