Set_Shunt_Value Method

In This Topic

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

Syntax

Visual Basic
C#

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

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

public string Set_Shunt_Value( 
   IntPtr DeviceHandle,
   int ShuntValue,
   byte ChannelNumber
)

Parameters

DeviceHandle: Type: System.IntPtr
The handle associated with the USB device.
ShuntValue: Type: System.Int32
The value associated with a simulated load.
The value must be between 0 and 16,777,215.
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 is an analog-to-digital converter (ADC) value representing the simulated load that is applied to the USB device.
This function should be used when there is zero load applied to the sensor.
The Set_Load_Switch should be enabled before this function is called and disabled after this function is called.

Requirements

Target Platforms: Windows 10, Windows 11

Target Framework: .NET Framework 4.8 or later
