9-182
Indicates if the card supports one-pole.
onepole = slot[X].poles.one
[X]: Slot number (1 to 6)
This attribute will not exist for a slot if a card is not installed or the card installed does
not support one-pole. In these cases, the return value will be nil. If supported then,
the return value will be 1.
Setting this attribute on an existing pattern involved in scanning invalidates the existing
scan list (the pattern may or may not be used in the current scan list). Creating a new
pattern is okay.
To query if Slot 3 supports one-pole:
OnePole3 = slot[3].poles.one
Indicates if the card supports two-pole.
twopole = slot[X].poles.two
[X]: Slot number (1 to 6)
This attribute will not exist for a slot if a card is not installed or the card installed does
not support two-pole. In these cases, the return value will be nil. If supported then, the
return value will be 1.
Setting this attribute on an existing pattern involved in scanning invalidates the existing
scan list (the pattern may or may not be used in the current scan list). Creating a new
pattern is okay.
To query if Slot 3 supports two-pole:
TwoPole3 = slot[3].poles.two
