Set_Decimal_Point Method

In This Topic

Warning: The use of this function can affect the factory calibration of the USB device.
Sets the decimal point format stored in the EEPROM of the microcontroller.

Syntax

Visual Basic
C#

'Declaration
 
Public Function Set_Decimal_Point( _
   ByVal DeviceHandle As IntPtr, _
   ByVal DecimalPoint As Integer, _
   Optional ByVal ChannelNumber As Byte _
) As String

'Usage
 
Dim instance As USB_DLL
Dim DeviceHandle As IntPtr
Dim DecimalPoint As Integer
Dim ChannelNumber As Byte
Dim value As String
 
value = instance.Set_Decimal_Point(DeviceHandle, DecimalPoint, ChannelNumber)

public string Set_Decimal_Point( 
   IntPtr DeviceHandle,
   int DecimalPoint,
   byte ChannelNumber
)

Parameters

DeviceHandle: Type: System.IntPtr
The handle associated with the USB device.
DecimalPoint: Type: System.Int32
The decimal point format associated with the USB device.
The value must be between 0 and 5.
ChannelNumber: Type: System.Byte
The channel number associated with the USB device.

Return Value

Type: System.String
A value equal to 0; otherwise Error

Remarks

The numeric values assigned by Set_Load_of_Loading_Point and returned by Get_Load_of_Loading_Point should be formatted using .

Example

Since only whole numbers can be stored in the EEPROM of the microcontroller, should be used to format a numeric value using the following expression: DecimalValue = NumericValue / 10^DecimalPoint
If the NumericValue = 1000 and the DecimalPoint = 2, then the DecimalValue = 1000 / 10² = 1000 / 100 = 10.00

Requirements

Target Platforms: Windows 10, Windows 11

Target Framework: .NET Framework 4.8 or later
