RtecatStartFromConfiguration

RtecatStartFromConfiguration starts a MainDevice using a configuration file created by the E-CAT Configuration Tool. Calling RtecatStartFromConfiguration also requests the MainDevice to switch to the Op state.

Syntax

Copy
RTECAT_COMMAND_STATUS RtecatStartFromConfiguration(
  [in]    RTECAT_HANDLE MainDevice,
  [in]    const wchar_t* pConfiguration
);

Parameters

[in] MainDevice

A handle to a MainDevice. To retrieve the corresponding handle, use RtecatOpenMainDevice.

[in] pConfiguration

A pointer to the path of the configuration file.

Return Values

The function returns an RTECAT_COMMAND_STATUS structure. If an error occurs, field State of the structure is set to ecatCommandError and the error code is stored in field ErrorId (see RTECAT_ERROR for error values). If the function succeeds, ErrorId is set to ecatErrNoError (which is represented by the value 0). If the function fails, it stores a different error value.

Possible return values:

Return value Meaning

ecatErrNoError

ecatErrWrongParameter

Parameter MainDevice is invalid.

ecatErrMainDeviceNotReady

The MainDevice instance does not exist.

ecatErrWrongEnvironment

Remarks

RtecatStartFromConfiguration is an asynchronous function that takes time to complete. It allows for background execution and requires you to check its status by calling RtecatGetCommandStatus or wait for it to complete by calling RtecatWaitForCommand.
