GxCntGetTimeIntervalDelay

Purpose

Returns the delay time for the GxCntSetFunctionTimeIntervalDelay function.

Syntax

GxCntGetTimeIntervalDelay (nHandle, pdSeconds, pnStatus)

Parameters

Name
Type
Description
nHandle
SHORT
Handle to a counter board.
pdSeconds
PDOUBLE
Returns delay time in seconds, delay time range is 20µS  to 3200 seconds.
pnStatus
PSHORT
Returned status: 0 on success, negative number on failure.

Comments

The delay time is used as a special mode to disable or “hold off” measurement completion to ease such difficult measurement setups. The delay time is only used by the GxCntSetFunctionTimeIntervalDelay function.

Example

The following example returns the prescale mode:

 

SHORT nHandle, nStatus;

DOUBLE dSeconds

GxCntGetTimeIntervalDelay (nHandle, &dSeconds, &nStatus)
