This method sends configuration information to the hardware.
 

C/C++ Declare

int _stdcall icsneoSendConfiguration(int hObject, unsigned char *pData, int lNumBytes);

C# Declare

[DllImport("icsneo40.dll")]
public static extern Int32 icsneoSetFireSettings(Int32 hObject, ref SFireSettings pSettings, Int32 iNumBytes, Int32 bSaveToEEPROM);


Visual Basic .NET Declare

Public Declare Function icsneoSendConfiguration Lib "icsneo40.dll" (ByVal hObject As Int32, ByRef pData As Byte, ByVal lNumBytes As Int32) As Int32


Parameters

hObject
    [in] Specifies the driver object created by OpenNeoDevice.

pData
    [in] This is an array configuration bytes. The format of this array is defined in the Configuration Array help topic. This data should be filled in with a call to GetConfiguration before calling SendConfiguration. The size of this array must always be 1024 bytes.

lNumBytes
    [in] This must always be set to 1024.

Return Values

Returns 1 if successful, 0 if an error occurred. GetLastAPIError must be called to obtain the specific error. The errors that can be generated by this function are:

NEOVI_ERROR_DLL_NEOVI_NO_RESPONSE = 75

Remarks

This method will only update the configuration defined in the Configuration Array topic.  It will also apply checking to the data so that a neoVI is not programmed to an illegal state. For example, setting the CAN controller to an illegal operating mode.

Examples

C/C++ Example

unsigned char bConfigBytes[1024];
int iNumConfigBytes = 1024;

    lResult = icsneoGetConfiguration(hObject, bConfigBytes, &iNumConfigBytes);

        iOldCNF3=bConfigBytes[NEO_CFG_MPIC_HS_CAN_CNF3];

        // 250 K for Value CAN 500k for neoVI (neoVI and valuecan use different CAN controller rates)

        lResult = icsneoSendConfiguration(hObject, bConfigBytes, iNumConfigBytes);

            MessageBox(hWnd,TEXT("Problem Updating Configuration"),TEXT("neoVI Example"),0);
         else

            bConfigBytes[NEO_CFG_MPIC_HS_CAN_CNF2],
