AioStartTmCount

Function

Starts the measurement of elapsed time.

Format

Ret = AioStartTmCount ( Id , TimerId )

Parameters

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

TimerId [ VB.NET : Short ] [ C, C++ : short ] [ C# : short ] [ Python : ctypes.c_short ]
Specifies the timer ID.

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.
16080	The value of TimerId is outside the designated range of the function
20001	This function can't be used by this device
20002	Can not use while by another device works To use this function, timer 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.
26080	The value of TimerId is outside the designated range of the device being used

Remarks

Starts the measurement of elapsed time.
After this function is performed, the elapsed time is reset to 0 and restart time counting when the function AioStartTmCount is performed again without performing the function AioStopTmCount.

This function cannot be used on devices without timer functionality.

Example

Starts the measurement of elapsed time for timer ID 0.

VB.NET	Dim Ret As Integer Ret = AioStartTmCount ( Id , 0 )
C, C++	long Ret; Ret = AioStartTmCount ( Id , 0 );
C#	int Ret; Ret = aio.StartTmCount ( Id , 0 );
Python	Ret = ctypes.c_long() Ret.value = caio.AioStartTmCount ( Id , 0 )
