Format
Ret = SmcWGetEncType( Id, AxisNo, EncType )
Parameters
Id [ C, C++: short ] [ Python: ctypes.c_short ]
Specify the device ID retrieved by SmcWInit function.
AxisNo [ C, C++: short ] [ Python: ctypes.c_short ]
Specify the axis number.
EncType [ C, C++: short * ] [ Python: ctypes.POINTER(ctypes.c_short) ]
Specify the address of a variable to store the type of encoder input.

Example
The set up information of the encoder input form of axis number 1 is acquired.
C, C++
long Ret;
short EncType;
Ret = SmcWGetEncType( Id , 1, &EncType );
Python
Ret = ctypes.c_long()
EncType = ctypes.c_short()
Ret.value = csmc.SmcWGetEncType( Id , 1, ctypes.byref(EncType) )
