1. F_OpenInstancesAndFPAs
Anchor
F_OpenInstancesAndFPAs
F_OpenInstancesAndFPAs

General Description

Multi API-DLL scans USB ports or LAN for connected FPAs listed in the setup file, or input string. When an FPA listed in the setup file is found, the corresponding API-DLL is copied on disk if necessary, and loaded. F_Initialization should be called for each FPA after this function succeeds.

...

In both cases, for the setup file and the input string, if a specied specified FPA is missing then it will not
affect subsequent entries. Therefore, a setup file with these contents:

...

Code Block
FPA-1 20090123 FPA-2 20090346 FPA-3 empty FPA-4 20090245

Output

INT_X : number of instances opened successfully

...

All FPAs terminate communication with target devices and close target devices according to configuration settings (power setting, adapter line states, etc.). Finally, the USB/Ethernet connections to the FPAs are terminated and API-DLL instances are freed. The Multi API-DLL can now be used to open a new set of FPAs using the function F_OpenInstancesAndFPAs.

Syntax

Code Block

language	cpp

INT_X F_CloseInstances ( void );

Input

none.

Output

INT_X : success or failed

TRUE (1) - success
FALSE (0) - failed

3. F_Set_FPA_index
Anchor
F_Set_FPA_index
F_Set_FPA_index

General Description

Select desired FPA index to perform specific tasks (access specific API-DLL instance).

...

BYTE fpa : desired FPA index, 1 to 64, or 0 for all

Output

INT_X : success or error

TRUE (1), used FPA index is valid
FPA_INVALID_NO (-2 or 0xFFFFFFFE) : FPA not opened with Multi API-DLL Functions | F_OpenInstancesAndFPAs or index out of range

IMPORTANT

...

BYTE : current FPA index as set using F_Set_FPA_index

5. F_Check_FPA_index
Anchor
F_Check_FPA_index
F_Check_FPA_index

General Description

Get current FPA index and check if index is valid. A valid index corresponds to an individual FPA that has been opened with F_OpenInstancesAndFPAs. If FPA index was set to 0 (all), then this function will only return 0, even if no FPAs are open. Does not indicate whether FPA index is enabled or disabled.

...

Code Block

language	cpp

INT_X F_Check_FPA_index ( void );

Input

none.

Output

INT_X : current fpa index if valid

current FPA index as entered using F_Set_FPA_index if selected FPA has been opened with Multi API-DLL Functions | F_OpenInstancesAndFPAs
FPA_INVALID_NO (-2 or 0xFFFFFFFE) : FPA not opened with Multi API-DLL Functions | F_OpenInstancesAndFPAs or index out of range

6. F_Enable_FPA_index

...

BYTE fpa : desired FPA index, 1 to 64

Output

none.

8. F_LastStatus
Anchor
F_LastStatus
F_LastStatus

General Description

Return value from the last function call issued to the specified FPA (API-DLL instance). This function is useful when multiple FPAs are being programmed using FPA index 0 (all), but the return value was not the same for all FPAs (i.e. 4 FPAs succeeded, 1 FPA failed). When the return value is not the same for all FPAs then, then the actual return value from the Multi API-DLL will be FPA_UNMATCHED_RESULTS. To find out per FPA return values, select each FPA index individually using F_Set_FPA_index, and call F_LastStatus for each index.

...

BYTE fpa : desired FPA index, 1 to 64.

Output

INT_X : Last return value from the selected FPA (API-DLL instance).

INT_X type return value from last function call on selected FPA
FPA_INVALID_NO (-2 or 0xFFFFFFFE) : FPA not opened with Multi API-DLL Functions | F_OpenInstancesAndFPAs or index out of range

15. F_CancelAction

General Description

Function that will attempt to cancel any running Encapsulated Functions , like the GUI Cancel button. This function is thread-safe. One thread can call F_AutoProgram (for example) and another thread can call F_CancelAction to stop the first. A reinitialization is recommended using F_OpenInstancesAndFPAs after calling this function.

Syntax

Code Block

language	cpp

INT_X  MSPPRG_API	F_CancelAction( BYTE fpa );

Input

BYTE fpa : desired FPA index, 1 to 64.

Output

INT_X : success or failed

TRUE (1) - success
FALSE (0) - failed

16. F_Trace_File

General Description

Set custom FileName for trace (used with Trace_ON). Set append flag true to keep previous contents.

Syntax

Code Block

18. F_Trace_ON

General Description

Activate tracing for subsequent calls to the Multi API-DLL. Log is saved in DLLtrace.txt located in the Multi API-DLL directory, or custom file if F_Trace_File function was called. When activated, records all API-DLL function calls from the application software invoked via the Multi API-DLL. The DLLtrace.txt trace file is overwritten for each new session, unless the F_Trace_File append flag is true.
