5 Function Reference
5.1 General Notes

Function Prototypes:
In the following function description the generic function proto-
types for Visual C++ are used. The definitions for other supported
programming languages which are partly using different data types
can be found in the appropriate definition files included with the
ME-SDK.

Parameter „Board Number“
When using a single board of a board family, the board number is
always „0“ (integer value). In systems running several boards from
the same board family the computer assigns the board number.
Use this number to access the board. Determine the assignment
of board numbers after installation of the boards.
Tip: Verify the assignment of „Board Number“ and serial number at
the beginning of your program (see function
).
5.2 Naming Conventions
The API functions of the “ME9000MIO” function library concern
boards of type ME-9000 with hardware revision 1.4 or higher and
for ME-90 PC/104-Plus. The function names consist of the prefix
“
and several components representing the respective
function as descriptive as possible. (e.g. “DIO” for “Digital I/O”.
For Visual C++ and Delphi no language specific identification is
given, i.e. the function name follows the prefix directly e.g.
However for Agilent VEE the characters
“VEE_“ (e.g. ), for LabVIEW the
characters „“LV_“ (e.g. ) and for Visual
Basic the characters „VB_“ (e.g. ) are
inserted.
For the description of the functions, the following standards will be
used:
