AioSetAiClockType


Function

Sets the clock type.

Format

Ret = AioSetAiClockType ( Id , AiClockType )

Parameters

Id [ VB.NET : Short ] [ C, C++ : short ] [ C# : short ] [ Python : ctypes.c_short ]
Specifies the ID retrieved from AioInit function.

AiClockType [ VB.NET : Short ] [ C, C++ : short ] [ C# : short ] [ Python : ctypes.c_short ]
Sets the clock type from the following range.
The available value differs by the device.

0

Internal clock

1

External clock

10

Event controller output

Return value

Ret [ VB.NET : Integer ] [ C, C++ : long ] [ C# : int ] [ Python : ctypes.c_long ]

Return values

Content

0

Normality completion

7

Execute AioResetDevice function because the device has recovered from standby mode

10001

Invalid Id was specified
Use the Id retrieved from AioInit to specify the Id in this function.

10002

AIO driver can't be called
At first, perform AioInit function.

11120

The value of AiClockType is outside the designated range of the function
Set 0(clock for conversion), 1(external clock) or 10(event controller output) to AiClockType.

20001

This function can't be used by this device

20002

Can not use while by another device works
To use this function, analog input operation must be stopped.

20003

Can not use because another process is using the device
When another process is using the device, all functions except for those that support multi-process can not be performed.

21120

The value of AiClockType is outside the designated range of the device being used

Initial value

Internal clock is used for all devices.

Remarks

If the internal clock is used as the clock, please use AioSetAiSamplingClock function to set the internal clock.
If the event controller output is used as the clock, please use AioSetEcuSignal function to set the connection of the event controller.
If you only perform this function, the connection of the event controller isn't changed.

This function cannot be used on devices without the analog input function.
If the device is in operation, the function cannot be performed.
