Parameters
- CommandNumber
The command to execute. Each command may require a number of input and output values, these value can be integer or double.
The following commands are currently available:
60 (Get CMM serial number) : retrieve the cmm serial number.
Input: command_number (value 60 decimal), int_in_data = NULL, int_in_data_cnt = 0, double_in_data = NULL , double_in_data_cnt = 0
Output: int_out_data (must be defined as an array of dimension one - integer) and will return the SN value, int_out_data_cnt will return 1, double_out_data = NULL, double_out_data_cnt = 0
Command affected: NONE
The serial number is returned as an integer value, first value of int_out_data array. No measurement routine command is affected.
70 (Set part temp) : set the part temperature value.
Input: command_number (value 70 decimal), int_in_data = NULL, int_in_data_cnt = 0, double_in_data (must be defined as an array of dimension one - double) contains the part temperature value, double_in_data_cnt = 1
Output: int_out_data = NULL, int_out_data_cnt = 0, double_out_data = NULL, double_out_data_cnt = 0
Command affected: TEMPCOMP
- InputIntArray
- An array containing the command integer input values, the dimension of the array depends on the command. If no input is required, this must be set to NULL.
- InputDoubleArray
- An array containing the command double input values, the dimension of the array depends on the command. If no input is required, this must be set to NULL.
- OutputIntArray
- An array containing the command integer output values. the dimension of the array depends on the command. If no output is required, this must be set to NULL.
- OutputDoubleArray
- An array containing the command double output values. the dimension of the array depends on the command. If no output is required, this must be set to NULL.
