slot[X].pseudocard

This attribute specifies the corresponding pseudocard to implement for the designated slot.
Type TSP-Link accessible
Attribute (RW) Yes
Usage
pseudoCard = slot[X].pseudocard
slot[X].pseudocard = pseudoCard
pseudoCard
X
Details
This attribute only exists for a slot if that slot has no card installed in it. Trying to use this attribute for a slot with
an installed card generates an error when writing and a nil response when reading.
After assigning a pseudocard, the valid commands and attributes based on that pseudocard now exist for that
slot. For example, the slot[X].idn attribute is valid.
Changing the pseudocard card assignment from a card to slot.NONE invalidates existing scan lists.
Example 1
myPseudoCard = slot[3].pseudocard
if myPseudoCard == 7072 then
print("Pseudo-7072 in Slot #3")
end
