Get_Config_List; Get_Counts; Get_Dll_Version - Scanlab RTC 5 PC Interface Board Installation And Operation Manual

Ctrl Command get_config_list
Function passes the parameters of the current list memory configuration (Mem1, Mem2) to the DLL's
board management and initializes it as if the
Call

get_config_list()

Comments • The get_config_list command is useful when a board changes "ownership" and the
new board management is not aware of the memory configuration (at the start of each
application, the board and board management each independently initialize
Mem1 = 4000 and Mem2 = 4000; the board via
board management when starting the corresponding application). Also see
Acquisition by an Application", page
• The get_config_list command does not return a value to the application. The applica-
tion can, however, read the list-memory configuration data after load_list( ListNo,
0 ) or set_start_list_pos( ListNo, 0 ) by using the
command.
• The get_config_list command will be executed regardless of the board's BUSY status.

Ctrl Command get_counts
Function reads the current number of successful external list starts
Call
Counts = get_counts()
Result Number of successful external list starts as an unsigned 32-bit value
Comments • The number is read from an internal counter, which is incremented each time a list is
started via an external start signal. The counter can be reset to zero via
set_control_mode.

Function returns the version number of the RTC
Call
DLLVersion = get_dll_version()
Result DLL version number as an unsigned 32-bit value

• The command get_dll_version is also available without explicit access rights to a
specific RTC
• get_dll_version is not available as a multi-board command.
• The board-specific error variables LastError and AccError (see
