SendGetFilm is used to get a Film’s parameters from the unit. The Film number
(1-25) is passed to the function. This function must precede the use of
Get122Film.

Get122Film

Parameters: Pointer to a Film Structure.
Return : 16 Bit Integer, always returns a 1.

Get122Film is used to retrieve a Film’s parameters (requested by SendGetFilm).
The parameters are passed through the Film Structure.

Example:

ReturnVal = SendGetFilm(FilmNum)

tell unit to transfer Film #

do while(ChkCommDone == -1)

wait for comm to finish

ReturnVal = Get122Film(&FilmStruct)

FilmStruct contains Film info

Set122Material

Parameters: Material # (16 Bit Integer), Pointer to a Material Structure.
Return : 16 Bit Integer, always returns a 1.

Set122Material is used to set a Material’s parameters in the unit. All of the
parameters are passed to the function through the Material Structure.

Example:

ReturnVal = SetMaterial(&MaterialStruct)

set Material parameters

do while(ChkCommDone == -1)

wait for comm to finish

SendGetMaterial

Parameters: 16 Bit Integer.
Return : 16 Bit Integer, always returns a 1.

SendGetMaterial is used to get a material’s parameters from the unit. The
Material number (1 - 99) is passed to the function. This function must precede the
use of Get122Material.

Get122Material

Parameters: Pointer to a Material Structure.
Return : 16 Bit Integer, always returns a 1.
