0. GX5641_GROUP0 (channels 0 to 31)
1. GX5641_GROUP1 (channels 32 to 63)
pdwStates
PDWORD
Group’s output state.
Each of the 32-bits represents a channel in the group. Bit 0 is the first channel in the group and bit 31 is the last channel in the group.
Bit low - channel output is disabled.
Bit high - channel output is enabled.
pnStatus

 
PSHORT

Comments

For protection, by default all channel’s connections (TTL and Deferential) are disabled after power-up and reset. The channels can be enabled and or disabled by calling Gx5641SetChannelOutputState.

Example

 

DWORD dwMode;

// Sets all the channels in group 0 to conversion mode.

Gx5641SetGroupMode (nHandle, GX5641_GROUP0, 0, &nStatus);

// sets channels 1, 5, 8 TTL to differential conversion mode, rest of the channels are set to

// convert differential to TTL level.

Gx5641SetGroupConversionMode (nHandle, GX5641_GROUP0, 0x00000121, &nStatus);

// Enables all channels outputs.

Gx5641SetGroupOutputState (nHandle, GX5641_GROUP0, 0xFFFFFFFF, &nStatus);

// Returns all the channels in group 0 conversion mode

Gx5641GetCGroupConversionMode (nHandle, GX5641_GROUP0, &dwMode, &nStatus);
