Api.SetConfiguredAxesCount method

Configures a number of simulated axes. The number of simulated axes is determined by how much the given value outnumbers the real hardware. If the given number is greater than the number of the real axes, KINGSTAR will display all real axes plus simulated ones. For example, if you have five real axes and you give the number seven, you'll get five real axes plus two simulated axes. If the given number is less than or equal to the number of the real axes, KINGSTAR will display all real axes without simulated ones.

Syntax

C#VB

public KsError SetConfiguredAxesCount(
       int Count
)

Public Function SetConfiguredAxesCount(
       Count As Integer
) As KsError

Parameters

Count

Type: int

The number of simulated axes. The maximum is 256.

Return value

Type: KsError

A return code of a method.

Remarks

Allows a developer to test applications without having all the hardware available. Simulated axes must be created using SetConfiguredAxesCount before they are configured with ConfigureAxis. This function must be called after Create and before Start. Once the link is established the simulated axes cannot be modified.
