Comments

This function disables a device from responding to parallel polling. If lBoardDevice specifies board address, all devices connected to this board will be unconfigured.

The hexadecimal format of the lBoardDevice parameter is as follows:

lBoardDevice = 0xBBPPSS

Where:

 

BB

Board address (1 - 9)

PP

Device Primary address (0 - 31) - 0 if not used (bus address), 31 used for Primary address of 0

SS

Device Secondary address (0 - 31) - 0 if not used (bus address or device without Secondary address),  31 used for Secondary address of 0      

When PPSS is 0, lBoardDevice specifies a board address. The value of lBoardDevice may be obtained using the GetDriverAddress function.

This function returns 0 on success and -1 on failure.
